Dataflow Silently Truncating Text to 1023 Characters

Hi, 

 

As the title suggests, I have a problem with my dataflow truncating the text in a cell to 1023 characters. The non-truncated text length when the datasource is loaded in Power BI Desktop is ~1,800 characters. 

 

The column is a text type. 

 

The query is folding to the datasource. The datasource is a SQLite .db file read by an ODBC driver via a gateway. I can't find any indication as to why this truncation is happening.

Experiment with the column type. keep it at "Any" or change it to binary. Then check the size of the blob.
