Even though the column is type datetime Power Query does not recognize it as such. Any ideas on how to fix this?
Yes, I can import the table if I don't try to filter the CreateDate column.
let
Source = XXXXXX.Data(XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX),
Contracted_Project__c = Source{[Name="Contracted_Project__c"]}[Data],
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Contracted_Project__c,{{"CreatedDate", type datetime}}),
#"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type",
each [CreatedDate] >= Date.StartOfYear(Date.AddYears(Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()),-1))
)
in
#"Filtered Rows"
RESULT: Expression.Error: We cannot apply operator < to types Date and DateTime.
Details:
Operator=<
Left=1/1/2024

Solved! Go to Solution.
You are trying to filter a datetime column with a date. That is the cause of the error. Wrap the filter criteria in a DateTime.From() to fix this.
#"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type",
each [CreatedDate] >= DateTime.From(Date.StartOfYear(Date.AddYears(Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()),-1))
))
