emmanmapada,

Are you able to view the new field when you connect to salesforce from other applications such as Excel? What is the type of this field?

Regards,
Lydia

      emmanmapada,

      What is the specific option in Excel do you use? If you use Power Query option, could you please post the code in Advanced Editor of Power Query? And also please post the code in Advanced Editor of existing query in Power BI Desktop. Do mask sensitive data before uploading codes.

      Regards,
      Lydia
