The query editor only has two options "Apply Now", and "Apply Later". What if I've messed up my query and never want to apply the changes?

Please bring back the ability to discard changes made during the time the query editor was open

This is available in Power BI Desktop - when you close the query editor and choose not to apply your changes, the yellow bar appears at the top of the canvas and allows you to discard your changes.

Somebody in the organisation is a 'ecking prick... So many years and no solution. Are you daft, hello?

Agreed. That option is desperately needed!

I can't believe this still isn't an option. Hope it gets escalated.

RE: Discard Query Changes

Please fix this, if we accidentally load a huge table then we have to wait until it gets loaded and delete it . This would save a lot of time.

RE: Discard Query Changes

This is VERY frustrating not to have a "Do Not Apply" button!

RE: Discard Query Changes

Is there a kind of solution this far - more than 4 years? I realized I should not blindly accept the pending changes as they may destroy everything on the report.

RE: Discard Query Changes

nice to have to add “Ctrl+z” functionality for deleting query steps
