If you have closed the Query Settings pane (the pane that has the APPLIED STEPS) in Power Query of Power BI and need to bring it back (reopen it), go to the View ribbon, and click the “Query Settings” icon.

The Query Settings pane which shows all the APPLIED STEPS (transformations) that have been applied to the data brought into the Power BI application will open at the right of the screen (where it normally resides).

Thanks for reading!
