Expression.Error: We cannot convert the value <ccon>null to type Text.. </ccon>.

Hey all,

 

Can you please let me know what issue is that?

 

I can't see any error in PowerQuery on the pbix file.

Hi. You can try refreshing the power bi desktop file in order to find the table with the issue. DataTypes usually can skip issues when refreshing a pbix but not on service. At some point there is a value in a column in a table that can't be converted. Check if you can find the table. Then go step by step on that table looking for a change of type to text. That step might be falling. Check the data to understand the value. Then you might need to take a decision on how to proceed depending on the data and your objective.

I hope that helps,

I managed to find the table, and saw there was some new values added to the file, which I delete them and save the file. After that I was able to refresh the dataset in the service.
