When expanded column is not returning expected value rather delimited values of the entire row.
The data source is BigQuery and the expected value on the Sessions table is an integer. Why is it that it is returning what appears to be a delimited values of the entire row?
Appreciate any help.
Cheers,
David
Hi Anonymous ,
Currently simliar issue has been sumbited internal.
As a temporary workaround, try to make the table name and the column name be different to avoid this issue.

Looks like that column contains JSON. You could try making a custom column with = Json.Document([Sessions]) to confirm and/or drill into that array.

Hi Pat,
Thank you for looking into my problem.
Added a custom column Json.Document([Sessions]) and records contain the following error message
DataSource.Error: ODBC: ERROR [42000] [Microsoft][BigQuery] (70) Invalid query: Unrecognized name: source; Did you mean bounces? at [3:5]
Details:
DataSourceKind=GoogleBigQuery
DataSourcePath=GoogleBigQuery
OdbcErrors=[Table]The preview of the table from BigQuery looks like this.
That column may not contain valid JSON anymore (after Power BI tried to "help"). Are you able to send some example data? I assume you are getting a JSON response. If you paste your query URL in a browser you can copy/paste the JSON into a text file, store that in OneDrive or GoogleDrive and provide a link here.
