The 'Tags' column does not exist in the rowset.

Hi!

 

I'm using a dataflow connected to some excel files on sharepoint and recently I'm geting this error on power bi service dataset refresh. On desktop works fine.

I don't have any reference to this column.

Data source error: The 'Tags' column does not exist in the rowset. Table: DataSourcesCurves.

I already seen the other "The 'xyz' column does not exist in the rowset. " posts, none resolve my case where I never refer to the column and start to get wrong alone (there's no alteration on files or m scripts).

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

What is the last time your dataflow can refresh successfully? Could you please try to verify if you can see this column in a new dataflow using the same query? Are there any changes applied to this 'Tags' column in the origin file recently?


Best regards,

I'm having a similar problem with the same error message.  My dataset uses a dataflow pointed at a SQL Server database.  This has worked without issues for a couple of months.  Either over the weekend or Monday, I began seeing refresh errors with this message.  At the same time, I had a measure that quit working properly and began reporting maximum values for the field type (2+ million).  I "fixed" the measure by ignoring it and instead re-exposing the underlying value for the measure.  I republished from Desktop without any problems.  Then on the first scheduled refresh on Power BI service, the 'Tags' column error reappeared.  I'm about to try to repubish the report/dataset, but I have zero confidence that it will resolve the problem.

The last successful refresh was at 3/3/2020, 9:25:06 AM.
After that, we update power bi desktop to v. fev/20, and include a connection to a sharepoint list getting a list of AD Users.
But on the table that having the error nothing was changed, and also we doesn't even querying the column "Tags".
