Index Error

[krixtsup3r]

Hi Guys,

I'm getting this error (image below) when I try to refresh it in the web, but if I check it on Desktop then refresh it, it doesn't give me any error. Any reason why is that?

Thank you!

hi everybody, Please i need help with the next topic.

I have a querry and I want to be able to transform a column with nested tables, I need to delete the columns that I do not need, but as some tables have more column than others, it sends me a message that does not find column 18 or some other that does not have another table, the querry is this, suddenly some suggestion. if I place it the missginfield.ignore sends me that other message
Table.TransformColumns(Headers, { "Data", each
Table.RemoveColumns(_, Lista_Final),MissingField.Ignore })
Expression.Error: No se puede convertir el valor 1 al tipo Type.
Detalles:
Value=1
Type=[Type]

@krixtsup3r Are you able to paste your Advanced Editor code? The error says you passed too many arguments but what it calls out I only see 4 arguments and it says there were 5 passed in so maybe need to see surrounding code to understand what is going on.

@krixtsup3r ,  have configured any scheduler for it? if so, please check any error there.

Also, what kind of connection it is. Does it require Gateway or details that can be given at power BI service? Make sure either Gateway is the place or credentials have been given at the service level. (Because I can see connection error)

If everything is set and you still have an error

You can check and log an issue at -https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/idb-p/Issues

Hi Guys,

Thank you for the response:

@amitchandak , I actually havent set any schedules yet. I just tried to refresh it On Demand and I get that error.

@Greg_Deckler, here's my code (see below), I am not really sure what's happening. In the Desktop it refreshes fine but when I refresh it on Service I get the error.

let
    Source = Folder.Files("C:\Users\\Productivity Raw"),
    #"Removed Other Columns" = Table.SelectColumns(Source,{"Content"}),
    #"Filtered Hidden Files1" = Table.SelectRows(#"Removed Other Columns", each [Attributes]?[Hidden]? <> true),
    #"Invoke Custom Function1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Filtered Hidden Files1", "Transform File", each #"Transform File"([Content])),
    #"Removed Other Columns1" = Table.SelectColumns(#"Invoke Custom Function1", {"Transform File"}),
    #"Expanded Table Column1" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Removed Other Columns1", "Transform File", Table.ColumnNames(#"Transform File"(#"Sample File"))),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Expanded Table Column1",{{"name", type any}, {"productivity", type any}, {"job_count", type any}, {"total_review_time", type any}, {"total_research_time", type any}, {"total_inactive_time", type any}, {"queue", type any}, {"day", type any}, {"user_id", type any}}),
    #"Extracted Date" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Changed Type",{{"day", DateTime.Date, type date}}),
    #"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Extracted Date",{{"total_inactive_time", type number}, {"total_research_time", type number}, {"total_review_time", type number}, {"job_count", type number}, {"productivity", type number}}),
    #"Inserted End of Week" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type1", "End of Week", each Date.EndOfWeek([day],1), type date),
    #"Inserted Start of Month" = Table.AddColumn(#"Inserted End of Week", "Start of Month", each Date.StartOfMonth([day]), type date),
    #"Removed Other Columns2" = Table.SelectColumns(#"Inserted Start of Month",{"day"}),
    #"Removed Duplicates" = Table.Distinct(#"Removed Other Columns2"),
    #"Sorted Rows" = Table.Sort(#"Removed Duplicates",{{"day", Order.Descending}}),
    #"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Sorted Rows", "Index", 1, 1, Int64.Type),
    #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Added Index",{{"Index", "IndexDaily"}}),
    #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Renamed Columns", each [day] <> null and [day] <> ""),
    #"Changed Type2" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Filtered Rows",{{"IndexDaily", type number}})
in
    #"Changed Type2"

@krixtsup3r - OK, this seems to be the same problem as here:

https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Refresh-Error-in-PowerBI-Service-No-issue-refreshing-in-Des...

Change this:

= Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Added Index", "Index.1", 0, 1, Int64.Type)

to this:

= Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Changed Type", "Index", 0, 1)

Maybe get rid of the Int64.Type? Wait, maybe it doesn't like that you sorted the rows and didn't do a Table.Buffer? @v-deddai1-msft

It worked! Thank you so much.

@krixtsup3r Must be some kind of bug going on in the Service or something, that issue seems to be very recent. I think they added the ability to specify the type on the Index but apparently the Service missed that memo. Did you read the memo?

[krixtsup3r]

That's why it happened to 4 of my PBI projects.

I honestly haven't read the memo, I just usually scan through the new updates on each month. Thank you so much for your help, man! 

[Greg_Deckler]

@krixtsup3r No problem, I was joking about the memo!! The Service needs to read the memo!!
