SharePoint List and Power BI Integration

Hello,

 

I have connected SharePoint list with Power BI. SP list have multiple columns and some of them are set as 'Choice' (Drodown) datasets. When I am trying to connect with Power BI, it's showing '[List]' rather than showing multiple option in list. I am looking for all options selected for each action item. Is this a bug? Please help!

Hi Qiuyun,

 

I got the solution. I just changed the Column format in Query Editor and I can see the data now. 

 

Thanks,

Chinmay

Hi @Anonymous,

 

How do you define the Choice column in the list? Would you please share how the list looks like? 

 

Based on my test, if the SharePoint online list is defined as below, we can retrieve the same data in Power BI desktop.
