Locate custom entity field in table

Posted on by 166

Hi all,

I created a custom field under Leads and I need to use it in my Power BI model.

How can I locate the table this field belongs to so I can expand it in Power Query? I already went through all tables included in the Leads table, found such a column in few cases but all were empty.

All suggestions will be much appreciated :)

    Hi,

    My custom field is new_lostreason.

    I found that in a table below

    Hi,

    The custom field only exists in the entity that you create the field on.

    So your custom field exists only in Lead entity.

    I’m afraid I can’t understand what “found such a column in few cases but all were empty” mean.

    Can you provide some screenshots about it?
