Is there a way to implement a "COUNTIF" Excel function in Power Query for a custom column? Preferably without having to write formulas to check the value of each column individually?
For example, for each row, I'd like a count of the number of columns that have a specific value (value = 6). See screenshot below from Excel, with the desired result in column J and formula in column K.
The only way I've found so far is to do something like this, but this becomes cumbersome if dealing with many columns (100+).
Any help is appreciated!
My suggestion is to begin by using UNPIVOT OTHER COLUMNS, then use GROUPBY, then do a COUNT for your specific value
Thanks for the suggestion. Where can you implement a COUNT for a specific value? All of the options I am able to find only do a count of the number of rows.
It should already count for you.
Here's my example:
Select the Nodes columns >> Unpivot Columns >> Filter Values = 6 >> Group by Date and Node and count the rows.
