Hi all, I am trying to load the data from a CSV file format. Issue is that date is in text format mm/dd/yyyy and when changing or transforming the data type to date in power query it is not recognising and showing error.

Hi @Ankit0111 

 

you may try Date.FromText function in Power query. If it does not please share sample data and error content.

 

Hope it helps.
