Lost data between Power Query and Power BI

Hi Community, 

I have in Power Bi a table that has fields that contains lists.

To see the values in the table, I go to Edit Queries and open the Power Query. In the relevant column I click on "Expand to New Rows".

Then the name "List" changed to "Record", so I again click on "Expand to New Rows".

After that I expect to see the columns with the values. The values are shown in the column filter:

But in the column is shown a unique value (3.60002E+11)

When applying the changes to Power BI, the only value that is shown is 3.60002E+11, in the column and also in the filter

So all the data is lost.

This happens in several different columns.

What am I missing? How can I work with the original values?

Thanks!!

Hi @Anonymous 

You need to change the data type from Any (ABC123) to Whole Number (123) like below.
