All columns do not appear when connecting to powerbi

Further to the comment above re extensibility, I also try to do things in PBI that don’t explicitly list all columns - just the ones I want to manipulate in that particular step. e.g.

  1. using a function to reorder columns in an extensible way (so we only specified the columns we wanted to put at the start, rather than explicitly listing ALL the columns we wanted)
  2. selecting the columns we wanted to keep then choosing ‘remove other columns’ rather than explicitly specifying the columns to keep

etc.
