Why this Power Query does not work?

Hello

 

Any idea why the Power Query below does not work?

 

#"Filter Today" = Table.Join(Table.TransformColumnTypes(Table.FromRecords({[Date = FormatDateTime.Date(DateTime.LocalNow())],[Date = Date.AddDays(DateTime.Date(DateTime.LocalNow()),-1)]}), {{"Date", type date}}, "en-US"), "Date", #"Changed Type", "Date"),

 

Thanks!

Hi @Anonymous 

 

As @AlexisOlson mentioned, you need to replace FormatDateTime.Date() with DateTime.Date()

"FormatDateTime.Date" is not a valid function name.
