Error when trying to do a Refresh #28

Closed gapendo closed 2 years ago

gapendo commented 2 years ago

Hi there, I am stuck with an error when trying to do a refresh. It says that there are pending changes in your queries that haven't been applied and when I click apply changes, it's complaining Query 'Tables' (step 'Renamed Columns1') references other queries or steps, so it may not directly access a data source. Please rebuild this data combination. Kindly see below screenshot.

Hi @gapendo

I see you're running Model Documenter v1.x.x May I suggest you to upgrade to Model Documenter v2.0.1 where these kind of issues are resolved. You can read more and download v2 in this blog

In case you first want to fix v1, then please have a look at the FAQ and in particular this item which explains your case and how to solve it :)

Thanks! --Marc
