Starting a new topic since I think my question has changed.
I had a Power BI report which pulled from a SharePoint list. This list had (among other fields) three People Picker fields. Originally configured for one name max these worked fine, and was even used as a filter in some visuals. Now I have changed the People Picker fields to allow up to four names, and it's working fine in SharePoint, BUT...
Any thoughts?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hello. Sorry for delayed response. This is solved, but via none of the entries in this thread. I had to go back to my SharePoint list and my Flow and make structural changes to how the names/addresses are handled and that fixed everything.
As the solution isn't really topic-appropriate to this forum I'll exclude it, but if anyone comes across this with a similar issue and needs an answer don't hesitate to contact me.

Daryl,
I am just trying to do what you orginally asked in the fact i have 3 people picker fields in my sharepoint list which could have multiple entries. how did you get power bi to extract the names of the people?
Hi Daryl,
You have to do this in Power Query M, not DAX. The multivalue fields are now located in FieldValuesAsText, which has to be expanded to get to the individual fields. Once that occurs, there's a number of transformations to perform. I'm working on a blog post on how to do this currently. You can use the Split column transform to separate the values.
Hope this helps!
