Dear Dataiku Community,
I have some data that I need to push into power BI from Dataiku,
However, because some cells of that data came with multilines ( data imported from .xlsx file)
like : " BHGE OCTOPUS¶9-5/8" X 3-1/2"
when pushed into PowerBI, this results in new blank row creation, with only the column that conatins that cell populated with the data that came after line break.
When searching through dataiku, I saw someone posted a similar question ,
And the answer was to find & replace " \n " in prepare recipe step.
I tried both that, and to replace the symbol that was displayed " ¶ "
None of which worked,
In the end I went with Python Code to solve this issue:
------------
This_df = This_df.replace('\n',' ', regex=True)
-------------
I can't help but think, is there any other way to do that with Dataiku dss that I am missing?
Thank you,
Operating system used: Centos 7.9

Hi,
When using find/replace, \n will only match if you are set the “Match mode” to Regular expression. Otherwise it only matches actual “\n”.
¶ is a visual representation of a new line character which is invisible usually. Try copying the new line character from a multi-line text and paste it in your find and replace formula.
Hi Turribeach,
Thanks for your answer,
True , when copying the cell contents it is invisible and just translates into new line, however, The symbol does show in dataiku cell contents, and can be copied on its own,
I did try to copy it in find & replace , that did not work either, just like \n
Hi Adrien,
Thank you so much for your answer, it works perfectly now !
