Select this column - Home - Keep rows - Errors - Then you will find rows with errors.

If it doesn't show errors still - 

At the bottom of the screen, you see column profiling based on 1000 rows. Click that and change it to all rows.

Now, in the column quality, it should say how many errors.

Now select this column - Home - Keep rows - Errors - Then you will find rows with errors.
