Hello There,
I need help with this case.
My company's BI database works on Azure.
As you all know, I can choose which Azure tables I want to "pull" to Power BI (without determining columns).
My base keeps searching and updating Power BI data every day, but when I add new columns to the Azure tables, Power BI blocks the daily update.
In other BI tools I have the option to choose what should happen when adding / removing columns.
- Lock update
- Add Column
- Ignore Column
Where do I choose this option in Power BI?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @ThalesFerraz,

I don't think there is such option in Power BI currently. I would suggest you to submit your requirement on Power BI ideas and vote it up to improve Power BI and make this feature coming sooner.![]()
