The column X of the table wasn't found.

Hei, I keep getting the following when trying to refresh a dashboard. This column lives in Salesforce and we don't want to pull this data but it seems like it needs to be pulled to the desktop version in order to refresh the dashboard? 

It does not happen in desktop but only in online platform when refreshing the dashboard.

The column X of the table wasn't found.

Thanks!

Best,

Hi, I know this reply is very late lol, but were you able to find a solution? I've used the Salesforce connector but I had some issues in service with my data too. As a workaround, maybe you can try to test your connection with a 3rd party connector. I've tried windsor.ai, supermetrics (which doesn't have PBI as a destination, so you first have to export to Google Sheets and then export to PBI) and funnel.io. I stayed with windsor because it is much cheaper so just to let you know other options. In case you wonder, to make the connection first search for the Salesforce connector in the data sources list:

After that, just grant access to your Salesforce account using your credentials, then on preview and destination page you will see a preview of your Salesforce fields:

There just select the fields you need. It is also compatible with custom fields and custom objects, so you'll be able to export them through windsor.  Finally, just select PBI as your data destination and finally just copy and paste the url on PBI --> Get Data --> Web --> Paste the url.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Does that mean the column didn't exist in dataset?
