Power Query - Reference Filtered Column from another Query

Hi,

 

I'm trying to make my query a bit more efficient by doing multiple things in one step.

 

I'm trying to reference a column in another query as a new query, but I also want to filter down the results in this column so I end up with one cell. For example, this code allows me to reference just one column (Expected Pattern column) from another Query (Taxonomy - Expected Pattern):

= Table.SelectColumns(#"A: Taxonomy - Expected Patterns",{"expected_pattern"})

It gives me one column with all rows from the original Query.

 

I have 2 fields in the original Query that I'd like to use to filter down the results in this new Query. The following code shows how I'm referencing one row in the Query by filtering down the results:

= Table.SelectRows(#"A: Taxonomy - Expected Patterns", each ([taxonomy_date_source] = "DV360") and ([taxonomy_field] = "Insertion Order"))

I would like to combine both steps into one so I only have one row, showing the Expected Pattern for the Taxonomy Data Source and Taxonomy Field I'm filtering to.

 

Any ideas on how to achieve this?

 

Thanks,

Mark
