Help getting data out of a sharepoint list
I am accessing a Sharepoint list with PowerBi and the fields that have dropdown lists show up as [list]. If tried multiple methods to extra the single result in PowerBi but to no vail. The field is called Sub Chosen. If I click on the word [list] in Power Query is shows the attached information
Ok, so if you delete the step that was created when you clicked on the word in the list, do you see this icon in the column header for that column?
If you do, click on that and choose either 'Expand to New Rows' or 'Extract Values...'

Hi aspitalnick
If every list has only single value, you can add a custom column to extract this value. Use List.First([Sub chosen]). Then delete the List column [Sub chosen].
