As PBI is case insensitive and if we use SSAS in case sensitive mode we will end-up see values merged in visual.
Please provide an option to enable case sensitivity in Power BI

RE: Please enable case sensitivity in Power BI

Same issue here, using direct query that keep case sensitivity and SUMMARIZE function to create a table who lose it, the created table does not contains case sensitive differences.Then TREATAS is case sensitive and does not take into account similarities... Some data is lost and I have not found a workaround yet....As there is no coherency here, I guess it could be considered as a bug ?

From a report I get from SFDC there is an unique alpha numerical identifier that is case sensitive, and that also part of the URL to create the connection between PowerBi and SFDC. I cannot use this today and creates some wrong relationships

RE: Please enable case sensitivity in Power BI

This is a huge bug. I was hoping to be able to use Power BI for our Data Cleansing efforts. But if it is going to alter the data I can't tell someone that they have trust me and don't believe what they see with their own eyes if I tell them their data is in mixed case even though the report converted it to uppercase.

I am trying to clean up State and Country Codes to match ISO standards. Power BI is converting Tx, Ak, and oK to TX, AK, and OK.
