"Enter a valid JSON" error Power Automate when I run JSON query against dataset

Hello,

I

I am building a Flow in Power Automate which seeks to query a table visualization published in Power BI Premium and generate a csv from that data. However, I keep receiving an error message which reads "Enter a valid JSON." My method is below.

 

First, I've obtained the proper visual JSON query by
1. Opening report in Desktop

2. Selecting Visual

3. Selecting Performance Analyzer

4. Selecting Record

5. Selecting Refresh Visuals

6. Hitting Stop

7. Copying the DAX from the visual I want to copy (a basic table)

 

When I paste the DAX code into Power Automate, I receive an error which reads "Enter a Valid JSON."
The resulting DAX code is pasted at the bottom of this post.

Here is the top of my flow:

apmulhearn_0-1686311718602.png


And the bottom:

apmulhearn_1-1686311743855.png

 


Here is the query I am entering which results from my Desktop file:
