Hi All,
I'm parsing JSON with PowerBI and, at some point, I have a list of records.
I can't drill down the list without multiplicating rows, so I wanted to convert them to new columns and found this solution on the forum:
#"DecisionDetailed" = Table.TransformColumns(<step>, <column> , each Table.Transpose(Table.FromList(List.Transform(_, each Record.Field(_, "value"))))}})
I works well when "values" is of type Text, but I happen to also have Booleans there and PowerBI generates an error:
"We cannot convert the value false to type Text."
Am I doing this right? Can I force PowerBI to return the boolean anyway?
Thanks,
PC.
