Power Query table schema view of Dataverse table has null column Descriptions

Hi All, I have connected to Dataverse table using the "CommonDataService.Database" power query connector.  I then used Table.Schema to find the table field captions (i.e. the Display Name) and descriptions.   I can see the field but I cannot see the descriptions.  Is the connector not working or is the Dataverse storing the schema description in another place?

A screenshot showing the Column Name and the Field Caption (i.e. Display Name), but the description is blank!!

    I just tested this and can replicate the behavior you're showing, nothing showed up in the Description field even though I did add descriptions for several columns in a custom Dataverse table. So if it's a bug, it's not affecting just your tenant!
