Is there a way I can reorder columns in 'Data View' within Power BI? I tried doing it in Power Query first but when the data loads into the table, the columns automatically rearrange.
Use the function 'SELECTCOLUMNS' to create a copy of the original table and reorder the columns in it.
Drag the required column and Drop at the position you want to place. For the Power BI reorder columns demonstration purpose, we are dragging Country Column to the second position (after geography Key). Now you can see the State in the third position.
If you Shift + click a second time on the same column, this will change the sort direction (ascending, descending) for that column.
It is extremely stupid way, but it is working - i found it by accident:
Hope it helped.
