nrawlins,

Do you connect to Salesforce content pack in Power BI Service? If so, please use SalesForce object connector in Power BI Desktop instead to connect to your source and check if you can get Note.

Hi Lydia,

 

Thank you for your response.

 

We are already using PowerBI Desktop using Salesforce Object Connector.

 

The "Note (ContentNote)" is not avaiable in the list - only the old legacy "Note" object, so this will not work for people using the enhanced version of Salesforce Notes.

 

It is also only avaiable in Salesforce Data Loader when selecting "Show all Salesforce objects"

 

Any idea's?

 

Thanks

    nrawlins,

    Do you get expected result when you connect to Salesforce from Excel?

        nrawlins，

        I suspect that it doesn't support to get Note(ContentNote) of salesforce data in Power BI, I would recommend you submit a feature request in Power BI ideas forum.

        Regards,
        Lydia
