Power query or load data

Hi Team,

I have quite huge data. so applied some filters through power query.

Now in power query window, its taking time to get data filter.
Once done i will do it close and apply. This operations will take some time too.

so just wanted to know ( for future referance), while power query is calculating shall i wait or go for Close & Apply?

which one better way to do it.?

Hi @NILU090 ,
yes, you can click "Close and apply" as soon as you are done with your actions in the query editor. No need to wait for the calculation to finisch before loading to the datamodel.
