I am trying to get into Power BI reports that others made in my organization to make them a tool. This tool is meant to parse their reports and find column references that need to be updated. The "Content" field is null in all of the "Catalog" items, so it makes me think that in order to find this information I need to look at the "CatalogItemExtendedContent" table. The "Content" columns are always populated there, but I can't figure out how to get the bytes in that column to be converted into something I can search through - preferably XML. When I try to convert that column to XML it tells me that there are invalid characters.
Can you please help me convert this "Content" column into something readable so I can see their table and column references? If needed, I can also utilize C# instead of just SQL.
