File or folder source loaded with every column
"File or folder source loaded with every column" is one of the performance checks Auditabi runs on a Power BI semantic model. n query(ies) read a file, a folder or a web response without ever restricting the columns. It is a low-severity finding: hygiene and maintainability, worth fixing when you next touch the object. Add Table.SelectColumns early, so only what the model needs is loaded.
What is detected
n query(ies) read a file, a folder or a web response without ever restricting the columns. Every column of the source ends up in memory, including the ones nobody uses. A query reading a curated database view is not reported: the view already selects.
Why it matters
Hygiene and maintainability. Fix when touching the object.
How to fix it
Add Table.SelectColumns early, so only what the model needs is loaded.
