Facebook connector error (#100)-The 'limit' parameter should not exceed 100

I am trying to complete the FB tutorial (using microsoftbi posts) and repeatedly get the error =

Details: Facebook : (#100)-The 'limit' parameter should not exceed 100

I have installed the most current version of PowerBI desktop.

 

How can I get past this problem?

Thanks much!!!

    Hi wildtxsue,

    Add a new blank query in Power BI Desktop, then paste the following code in Advanced Editor and you will be able to import data from the Microsoft Power BI Facebook site

     

    let
    Source = Facebook.Graph("https://graph.facebook.com/v2.8/microsoftbi/posts?limit=100")
in
    Source


    Thanks,
    Lydia Zhang

      That fixes the problem allright. Thank you for that.

       

      But you could have fixed it in July update of PowerBI Desktop so that user's don't have to fix it manually.

      I bet there are many wanna be users who get discouraged by this kind of errors that should have been fixed already.

       

      BTW, the PowerBI Desktop is great! I really love it!
