How to combine lists and remove duplicates in Power Query...
08-12-2018
01:20 PM
Hi,
I have two lists like as follows:
List1 |
Team1 |
Team2 |
Team3 |
Team4 |
List 2 |
Team1 |
Team2 |
Team5 |
Team4 |
I want to use Power Query to append the two lists and then remove the duplicates. This would result in a list like this:
All |
Team1 |
Team2 |
Team3 |
Team4 |
Team5 |
Can someone help me with the syntax needed to achieve this? I'm running into problems because the fields are called different things, so Table.Combine isn't working as desired.
Thanks,
Matty

Hi @Matty
For the two lists, select "Append as new", then select "Remove rows"->"Remove duplicates".
Best Regards
Maggie

Assuming your doing this Power Query. Make a Refence copy of of one of your lists and rename the column headers so they are the same prior to the merge. You can stop the interim query from returning values by combining the queries manually in advanced editor or by right clicking the query and I checking the Load To portion.
