I need to do a one time load of all the rows from a Sharepoint list into Sql Server. I am having trouble with parsing through the Get Items control. Especially for fields that are arrays.
Has anybody tried this before?
Thanks

I have a Power-BI dashboard that was created some time ago. It’s data source is a SharePoint-Online list. Since the Power-BI dashboard was created, several new fields have been added to the SharePoint list. Now I am being asked to add a new page to the dashboard that reports on those new fields. However, I have not found a way to get the existing Power-BI list/dataset to show the new fields.
Refreshing the data does refresh the values, but refresh does not add the new fields.
I’ve spend the last 4 hours looking on the internet for a solution. The only thing I have been able to do so far is to attach the list again with a different name- the new fields DO show up when I do this. (I can’t just replace the older Power-BI list/dataset because there have been several calculated columns and measures added.)
I can work with this and create the report, but is this the only way? It doesn’t seem like it should be.
Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!
(I'm using Power BI April 2021 and Sharepoint Online)
So, it looks like there's no good answer to this issue. I found that adding another instance of the reference Sharepoint list, that included the new columns, did work (however inelegant). That seems to be the best direct answer for times when the older pbix file must continue to be used.
What I ended up doing, though, was to create a new separate pbix file which included the latest version of the Sharepoint List. This was the best solution for my organization since it will allow us to be more focused on the specific manufacturing processes involved.
Thanks to #Jon and #Alejandro for their efforts to help!
If you have access to PowerAutomate you could refresh the dataset creating a flow so that given a certain time (say, once or twice a day) the dataset gets refreshed with the new created items.
Otherwise if you are working with the service version of Power BI you can program a refresh of the dataset directly from the workspace going to the settings of the dataset. You would have to have a gateway set for that which could be in personal mode or not.
Also if you want to update the data in the service version you could do it manually too in the workspace.
Clearly the system does not allow me to see some tables. Whether it is the tables linked to the module time or any other one. The same goes for the Purchase module, I have access to just some of the tables.
Can you guys help me understand why I cannot get access to these tables please?
note : i can access all of the sheet's records that i do not have access to on powerbi on another dynamics365 application, so i'm really confused why is that !
I'm trying to make an edit/delete records page for my project whereby the user can select check boxes allowing them to edit or delete multiple records in the database. I'm not really sure where to begin so any help would be greatly appreciated
I am working on a project that needs to be able to create dynamic queries into an H2 database. This also includes a full text search with built-in H2 logic, tables, and triggers.
I have been trying to figure out how to add that full-text search into my CriteriaQuery but keep running into the road block that the tables used aren't entities in my model. I could add them as entities, but I don't want them created automatically by EclipseLink when a new database file is created since there is a function in H2 that creates the tables and does other necessary housekeeping.
I had tried the path of creating a view to query the full text tables to give me the information I need in the format I need. But I still keep running into the same problem that that view is not an Entity.
Has anyone encountered this situation before and/or figured out a way around it?
Thanks!
