Extract column names and datatype per table

‎12-22-2022 04:59 AM

Hi all,


Is it possible to write a query that extracts all column names and datatype for a table in Power BI?

Desired output is a table with two columns, columnname and datatype.

Is it possible to get it for all the tables at the same time?
