How to filter table based on one column in another table
Hi,
I have to filter table values based on a column from another table in Power Query. Since I am using direct query, I can't use of merge.
Is there any way to filter other than inner join?.
Thanks,
Hi Yogisha ,
When we transform data in Power Query and create calculated tables with DirectQuery mode, the report will change to storage model. You could reference the document:About using DirectQuery in Power BI to learn more about DQ mode.
I'm not clear about your actual situation. If you need the report just with DQ mode, maybe you could try to create a relationship between the tables and then use slicers to filter it in report view.

Hi Yogisha,
let us suppose we have below two tables.
t1
id name sal
1 test1 10
2 test2 20
3 test3 30
4 test4 40t2
id Dept
1 IT
2 IT
3 Sales
4 ITWe can create a calculated table with the following dax if the data is in direct query mode.
Table =
var t2_TREATA= TREATAS(t2,t1[id],t2[dept])var result= NATURALLEFTOUTERJOIN(t1,t2_TREATA)return result- v-xuding-msft
