Merging on Power Query causes data to disappear

When merging tables on Power query my data then dissapears on the data tab on the front end/visual end of power bi desktop.

 

Very tempemental. Some times when I merge tables the data pulls all the way through, but sometimes the data seems to dissapear. I can see the data in the Power Query window but not on the Data tab when i close and apply. 

 

Sometimes, when it doesn't work, I delete the report and start again from scratch and then it works fine. 

 

I feel like this might be a Power BI Bug as I do the exact same thing every time and it never seems to be consistent.

 

The tables are all coming from SQL queries.

  • Look under Options and settings and play with the Query cache size to see if it makes a difference.

     

    Also consider that changes in your data source content may impact the final outcome, depending on what transforms you do. Hard to tell without seeing the code.
