Power Query - Add Column from Example

HI Microsoft,

 

I tried to add "column from example" in Power BI, which worked so great, but I think I found a bug about it. I did that by inserting the step, so that add column from example is not the last step, however, the M code generated put it to the very last step, and worse it replaces the last step. The title step is still the one I created, for example: Removed Columns, but the code of add column from example was put there.

 

Cheers,

Leo

I can repro the same issue as you. I’ve reported it internally to Power BI Team: CRI 35353660
I’ll post here once I get any update about it.

I've struck this too.  It scared me off using recommending this feature as the damage to a query script is potentially unrecoverable.
