Data Preview with Updated SQL Table

Hello,

 

I alterd one of my SQL tables and when into Power BI desktop to build a new dashboard. However, when I try to load the data the preview still shows the old table structure. I've tried refreshing the database, closing and reopening PBI, and restarting the computer, but nothing works. Any help would be appreciated.

@tespinal,

 

Hi Tony,

 

According to my test, the preview was refreshed at the same time. Could you please check these things below?

1. Clear the cache. Options -> Data load -> Clear Cache.

3. How about the data in the Query Editor? Load it anyway, ignore the preview.

4. Did you use Sql Server?

 

Best Regards!
