Power Query SCCM Installation

I have been trying to create a SCCM application which will install Power Query after installing MSOffice Pro Plus 2013. On a machine which has the Office, I can manually install Power Query, however, silent and administrative installs do not work. 
Has anyone successfully install Power Query through System Center as a system application (no user interaction)?  If so, what am I missing.
Steps taking so far:
Downloaded latest Power Query Software: "PowerQuery_2.13.3688.242 (32-bit) [en-US].msi"
Created a new application from the MSI.
Created a deployment.
Tested deployment on Windows 8.1 Machine. Failed to install.
Tested deployment on Windows 7 Machine. Failed to install.
Tried on both Windows 7 and 8.1 Machines to install by command line (admin command prompt) with /a or /I with /qn and will not install.
In event viewer return code is installation success or error status: 0.
Verified com add-in is not present.
Tried on Windows 7 and 8.1 machines installing with no flags and installs successfully.

Hi, 
I've tried to install PQ through SCCM it failed. I'm using command: msiexec /i "PowerQuery_2.16.3785.242
(64-bit) [en-us].msi" /q ACCEPT_EULA=1
This command works when I run cmd as Administrator on local machine (non-domain joined). But when cmd runs as a regular user (this user is local admin) it fails. SCCM tries to run it as local admin.
SCCM gives following error: 0x643 (1603).
Google says that it is related with elevation. Note: Run as Administrator feature blocked on client machines through GPO.
Could someone help me?

  • Error installing Power Query - Wrong edition of MS Office

    Hello Support,

    1) windows 8.1 - 64 bit
    2) office 2013 - 32 bit (home and small business)
    I had downloaded power query 32 bit but while installation it shows error msg -

    Kindly help me and sort out the issues.

  • Need to install Power Query with Internet Explorer 8

    Hello, could someone please help me?
    I need to install Microsoft Power Query to allow me to easily merge excel tables from different worksheets (files).
    The problem is that I am restricted to Internet Explorer 8.
    Here are my specs, I cannot change these:
    Windows 7, 64-bit operating system
    Excel 32-bit, Professional Plus 2010
    Internet Explorer 8
    When I try to install Power Query, I get the message that I need IE 9.
    I and others have other browser-based tools that only work on IE 8.
    There must be some work-around for this.
    I do NOT require the internet-searching feature of Power Query.
    Here are some possible options?
    Go into Control Panel and manually switch IE versions each time (not a feasible method at all)
    Force Power Query to work using Chrome or FireFox instead
    Disable certain features of Power Query to allow installation with IE 8
    This is really disappointing, I don't understand why we can't just have Power Query install regardless of IE version.
    Some functions could be disabled, but at least we could still use the actually important tools.
    Thanks for your help. Any input is appreciated.

    Hi,
    As far as I know,
    Microsoft Power Query for Excel requires Internet Explorer 9 or greater. Windows operation system will check the system requirements before starting installation. Thus, we could not do the options which you mentioned above.
    Then, we may try to find the workaround to get your original purpose: Merge excel tables from different worksheets (files).
    1. Try to use
    PowerPivot

    Please Note: Since the web site is not hosted by Microsoft, the link may change without notice. Microsoft does not guarantee the accuracy of this information.
    2. Try to use VBA code
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/gg549168(v=office.14).aspx
    3. If you have Excel 2013, we may try the new featuer "Data Model " in Pivot table:https://support.office.com/client/Tutorial-PivotTable-data-analysis-using-a-Data-Model-in-Excel-2013-f9ad8310-3b5b-48a3-913d-5cc1b364ee46

  • Unable to remove old version of Power Query

    I suddenly observed that Power Query and Power View tabs are missing from my Excel 2013 Pro Plus. Don't know the reason for this, but when I tried to install again, it says "The feature you are trying to use in on a network resource that is unavailable...
    Enter alternate path to a folder containing the installation package "PowerQuery_2.10.3598.81 (32-bit) [en-US].msi
    Old version of Microsoft Power Query for Excel cannot be removed.
    Can you please help me with this error?

  • Power Query disabled in Excel

    I am not able to use any of the POWER BI tools, every add-in's seems to be disabled in my system. I tried editing the Registry to but it didn't work. As mentioned in another feed, I tried installing the Data Mining add-in hoping that the installation would
    fix any undetermined registry issues, but was of no use

    Hi John,
    Would you be able to install the latest PQ update and verify if this issue still happens?
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/powerbi/archive/2014/05/29/what-s-new-in-power-query.aspx
    If that's still the case, could you try repairing your Office 2013 installation?

  • Can not see new Power Query data sources?

    Hi, 
    New Power Query can connect to three new data sources: Sybase IQ, Exchange, Dynamics CRM Online
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/whats-new-in-power-bi-ha104149776.aspx
    I just installed the latest Power Query and wanted to connect to CRM Online instance. For some reason I can not see these new data sources, what am I missing?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hmm... I didn't think we had quite released this version yet. It's possible that that website went live before the link to the new download. There should be a blog entry about this on the "Power BI" blog in the very near future.
    At the risk of providing a spoiler :), the CRM Online support is via OData.

  • Multiple Table.AddColumn command in a single Power Query

    I was using this example in another thread for another question and this issue popped up.
    I have this list in sharepoint.
    When I run this Power Query
    let
    Source = SharePoint.Tables("https://server/test"),
    PQtesting = Source{[Name="PQtesting"]}[Content],
    RemovedColumns = Table.RemoveColumns(PQtesting,{"ContentTypeID", "ContentType", "CreatedById", "ModifiedById", "Owshiddenversion", "Version", "Path", "Attachments"}),
    Custom1 = Table.AddColumn(RemovedColumns, "Options 2", each Text.Combine([Options][Value], ", ")),
    Custom2 = Table.AddColumn(RemovedColumns, "Options 1", each Text.Combine([Options][Value], " and "))
    in
    Custom2
    Only column Custom2 shows up in the output, if I remove custom2 then custom1 shows up.  It appears only one custom column shows up at a time as I can swap them and the custom column on the bottom will always show in the output.  I have found examples
    online of others using multiple custom columns.  Is this a limitation of something I'm doing in my code or of sharepoint, or am I doing something wrong?
    Thanks in advance,
    Eric

    I'm a bit embarrassed on how long I have been trying to figure this out.
    Thank you so much for your help.

  • Visual studio online - Excel power query usage and samples needed

    Background
    Visual Studio Online does not offer much in the way of reporting, when compared to (onsite) TFS... unless you utilize the REST API functionality.
    The Visual Studio Online REST API is fairly extensive, but not very 'reporting' friendly to applications like Microsoft Excel.
    Question
    Are there any good examples of Microsoft Excel Power Query usage - to acquire and create reports via the Visual Studio Online REST API?  I've searched - but surprisingly haven't found anything of substance.  It is fairly simple to call a VSO REST
    query using Excel Power Query, but not so simple to iterate through the lists within lists, etc... unless you are familiar with 'M language'.

    Hi,
    Thank you for reaching out to us. I am currently researching to gather more information with regards to your request. I shall revert back to you with an update at the earliest. Sincerely appreciate your patience.

  • Connecting Power Query to SharePoint Foundation 2010

    I'm looking to set up PowerQuery in Excel 2013 to link into the various lists on our SharePoint 2010 Foundation server.
    I have established the connection URL.
    The SharePoint Foundation 2010 server is on the same LAN I'm connected to, so I've opted for Windows Authentication.
    These two aspects of the setup appear to be fine: However at the point when Power Query links to the SharePoint server the following error is being returned.
    DataSource.Error: OData: The feed's metadata document appears to be invalid.
    Any ideas?

  • Power Query/Data Management Gateway data refresh not working

    Pretty new to o365/Power BI, but here's what I've got going on (hopefully someone can help me out):
    I created a data management gateway and data source.  The data source says it's online in the PowerBI admin center, and it seems to be working correctly.  I can open Excel 2013 on my desktop (logging in as my trial o365 account which has Power
    BI associated with it) and connect to the data source via Power Query using the oData option.  I make sure to import the data into the model, and then open up the PowerPivot window and create a simple pivot table using the data in the model.
    that all works just great.  The problem comes when I upload the workbook and try to update it.  I've tried a few different ways.
    1. When I try to manually refresh the workbook by opening it in my o365 site and going to data-->refresh I get the following error:
          An error occurred while working on the Data Model in the workbook. Please try again.
          We were unable to refresh one or more data connections in this workbook.
          The following connections failed to refresh:
          Connection: Power Query - dbo_DimProductCategory
          Error: Out of line object 'DataSource', referring to ID(s) 'a75593f3-c34d-4f83-9458-49aa2cece164', has been specified but has not been used.
          The following system error occurred: Class not registered
          The provider 'Microsoft.Mashup.OleDb.1' is not registered.
          Power Query - dbo_DimProductCategory
    2. When I go into Power BI and go to "Schedule Data Refresh" for the workbook, I get the following error:
          Sorry, the data connections in this report aren’t supported for Scheduled Refresh.
          Technical Details â–¼
          Correlation ID: B3CE4B10-2137-E593-6FCF-189B73465190
          Date and Time: 03/31/2014 06:20:39 PM (UTC)
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  If you need additional information, I'd be happy to provide it.

    Hey Guy,
    Thanks for the reply.
    The "data source type" of the data source in Power BI is "SQL Server" (there was only that and Oracle available to select from)
    The "data source type" that Power Query is using in Excel is "From oData Feed"....which is using the Power BI data source....which is using the data management gateway.
    A few follow up questions if you have a second
    1. Do you know when PowerQuery data refresh will be supported? (just a general idea....weeks, months, next year?)
    2. Is there any other way to connect to (and be able to refresh) PowerBI data sources referencing "on prem" data via the data management gateway?  I tried using the oData feed URL in non-PowerQuery areas of excel (excel data tab, PowerPivot directly)
    but it didn't work.  If there's some other way to connect to and refresh on prem data, i'm all ears :D 
    Really appreciate your help, thanks for taking the time.

  • POWER QUERY Get External Data From File From Folder (Excel 2013)

    Hi,
    Beginner's question :
    What could be the use of the query on a folder : we just get a list of files with their path. What can we do with that?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Do you want to combine data from multiple Excel Files in the same folder path into one table? If I understand correct, we can add a custom column to import the data.
    After we getting a list of files with their path, the Query Editor window will activate to show you a table containing a record for each file in the chosen directory. These will provide our function with the needed FilePath and FileName parameters. 
    Function sample: File name([Folder path],[Field name]
    For more detailed steps, please see the article:

  • Can I use Power Query to Import a table from Excel sheet range which starts not from the top row?

    Hi,
    Being an experienced Excel user before Power BI, I am just starting to explore the M and Power Query capabilities, and need help already (ain't easy to google this use case somehow):
    I need to import the table which sits in the Excel file with header row in the row 17 of Excel sheet, with some metadata header in the preceding rows of the columns A and B.
    01: Report name, Quick Report
    02: Report Date, 1/1/2014
    17: Employee Name, Manager, etc...
    18: John Doe, Matt Beaver, etc.
    Both (a) direct attempt to load as Excel file and (b) the indirect way through [From Folder] and formula in custom column -- both lead to the same error: "[DataFormat.Error] External table is not in the expected format."
    Specifically, I tried to use the [Power Query -> From File -> From Folder] functionality, select an Excel file and add a custom column to access the binary content: [Add Custom Column] with formula "=Excel.Workbook([Content])".
    It looks like Power Query expects a rectangular range with headers full-width followed by a contiguous table range to import anything, and refuses to load if that is not the case...
    QUESTION: Is there any way to load whatever-formatted data from Excel first, and then manipulate the overall imported range (like referring to rows starting from 17th using "Table.SelectRows" etc.) to read the actual data? Reading and using
    the metadata from header would be a bonus, but that comes second... The main issue is to get something from a non-regular Excel file to later work with using M formulae ...
    Thanks!

    Finally found the answer to this one in ():
    You Cannot Open a Password-Protected Workbook
     If the Excel workbook is protected by a password, you
      cannot open it for data access, even by supplying the correct password with
      your connection settings, unless the workbook file is already open in the
      Microsoft Excel application. If you try, you receive the following error
      message:
    Could not decrypt file.
    ANSWER: So, will have either weave in the work with temporary unprotected files or requires opening them before updating the data source (although this almost defeats the purpose of automation...)
    ANSWER to ORIGINAL QUESTION: password was preventing Power Query from reading the Excel file. For solution see above.
    Thanks anyway for participation and inspiration, Imke!

  • Data loaded to Power Pivot via Power Query is not yet supported in SSAS Tabular Cube

    Hello, I'm trying to create a SSAS Tabular cube from a data loaded to Power Pivot via Power Query (SAP BOBJ connector) but looks like is not yet supported.
    Any one tried this before? any workaround that make sense?
    The final goal is pull data from SAP BW, BO Universe (using PowerQuery) and be able to create a SSAS Tabular cube.
    Thanks in advance
    Sebastian

    Sebastian, 
    Depending on the size of the data from Analysis Services, one work around could be to import the data into into Excel and then make an Excel table and then use the Excel table as a data source.
