Hi everyone,
I came across a strange issue. I have two tables which contain information about mobile devices and their hardware capabilites. They both have the same column identifiers, but origin from different data sources (JSON, CSV). In order to have them together I appended one table at the end of the other one with the "Append" command. In the QueryEditor it is properly appended and merged. However once I try to create a new chart apparently "equal" values of one table are shown as a separate entry for example inside the pie chart (see picture below - we have twice 4.2).
The column is formated to "Text" only. I wonder why this happens and how I can append both tables so PowerBi is not viewing them as separate values. Does anyone have a tip on how to do that?
Thanks a lot!
@binux may be there is special character (non printable) in one of the value, in query editor, you can use clean and trim your column after append and see if that fixes it.
