I see. Let's do some quick checks here:
1. You've verified that env field does have data coming in from the source?

2. Do you see the data if you remove the filter?

3. I am assuming you are using preview to check presence of data - but can you save and run the streaming dataflow and then check if you see the output in the report?

Is it possible to share the schema/sample event of the data you are using? (You can dm me this if you'd like).

Eklavya MiguelMartinez here are the answers:

I see. Let's do some quick checks here:

  • Yes

2. Do you see the data if you remove the filter?

  • I see data with and without filter in the Preview.

3. I am assuming you are using preview to check presence of data - but can you save and run the streaming dataflow and then check if you see the output in the report?

  • Yes, in each step of the dataflow in the preview, i can see streaming and static data, even in the output tables.
  • If I save and run, I only see the output for not nested data.

The Data preview in streaming dataflows: green - able to pull, not nested, red - not able to pull, nested two levels.

 

Thank You for checking this Eklavya

    Just to add, in some cases empty rows are coming through with and without Filter feature.

        MrKrukauskas We tried reproducing the issue by reconstructing a payload similar to your description and it works for us:

        Payload:

         

         

        outputs:

         


        Can you ensure that your payload is valid json?

        To help you further, we will need the payload you are using for your events. The best way to do this is through Power BI Support
