Hi All,
I have 2 data sources and in both of them thare are columns NAME and ID. I would like to do a conditional join such as:
If NAME and ID are equal in both data sources join it based on these 2 columns; if not join it only based on NAME column.
If anybody can provide code from advance editor I would be very greatful.
Thanks

Try following code.
#"Merged Queries" = Table.NestedJoin(#"Changed Type", {"Id", "Name"}, Table2, {"ID", "Name"}, "Table2", JoinKind.LeftOuter),
#"Merged Queries1" = Table.NestedJoin(#"Merged Queries", {"Name"}, Table2, {"Name"}, "Table2.1", JoinKind.LeftOuter),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Merged Queries1", "Custom", each if Table.RowCount([Table2]) > 0 then [Table2] else [Table2.1])
in
#"Added Custom"
