Text Truncation issue

Hi,

 

While importing data from Azure Cosmos DB, the text is getting truncated in Query Editor.

The string represents a Base 64 image.

 

Original Size in Cosmos DB is 123160 bytes - 126115 characters

Size when loaded in Power Query Editor is 1024 bytes - 1024 characters

 

As per documentation, 536,870,912 bytes are allowed.

 

Reference: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-data-types#text-type

 

Please look into it.

@v-jiascu-msft,

 

1. Go to Query Editor.

2. Click on Enter Data.

3. Enter Base64 string of an image stored in text file at this location.

4. Close and apply.

5. Choose Data Category as Image URL.

6. Open this image in any visual that supports images. I chose Image viewer by Cloudscope.

 

You will notice that entire image doesn't load.
Here is the screenshot:

The size of the string is 679920 bytes so it should not be truncated. However, if you look in query editor the string is truncated.

 

 

Let me know if you need any more information.
