Scatter plot with date and number

So I'm trying to make a scatter plot using dates on the x axis and numbers on the y axis using this data.

 

Dates                    Number

1/3/20191
1/3/20192
2/2/20193
3/5/20191
3/1/20192
4/3/20193
4/4/20191
5/8/20193
5/10/20191
5/4/20191

 

But I keep getting mismatched fields error. Essentially i'm trying to make

which I made in excel, but in power Bi.

My bad.  I'm not sure you can do that with the native scatter chart.  It is frustrating that scatter charts are not simpler/better.  It is possible to easily make one in Charticulator (see pic below).  I can upload this pbiviz if interested, but you could likely make one better with a little more time.  Note that an Index column is needed with pbiviz from Charticulator, which can be easily added in the query editor for your table.

I cannot actually check this right now, because my Power Bi is not up to date. Will do so, once I am able to update.

I pasted your data in and the scatter chart worked fine.  Can you describe your situation more?

That's the sums, which do seem to work, but when I set the numbers to not summarize I get the error.
