Deleted ONE column of a table and my Dashboard BROKE!

[Miskondukt]

I updated ONE table deleting ONE column and now I cannot refresh the data. What gives? Is M$ saying that NO changes can be made to a table once it's uploaded into PowerBI? 

I have also deleted said column in the data view of Power BI and still it does not refresh. I really do not want to (a) have to rebuild the entire dashboard and (b) have to worry about having EVERYTHING in a table hte first go around. There will be edit, ppl will want different aspects after seeing what the dashboard provides and is capable of. This cannot be how PBI works...

I found this area, but how do I correct it from there? I tried using  the "delete column" option to no avail.

You clearly have either

1. a step somewhere in your query (perhaps setting the data type),
2. a measure or column in your data model,
3. or a table relationship

...that references that column. Or you have several of those things, but at least one. So in order for that thing to work, you need that column. If you want to get rid of that column you'll have to get rid of that thing that references it too. If you didn't have anything that ever used or referenced that column, you could delete it without consequence the way you think you should.

It was a blank column, no value nor was it used anywhere.

Read through the query steps for that table. It's referenced somewhere in there.
