Removing duplicate data

‎10-23-2017 06:14 PM

Hello,

 

Is it possible to remove duplicate data upon import/refresh of data uploads into a Power BI report?

Based on one column and indiscriminate of hich duplicates to delete.

 

Want to avoid doing this manually each time.

 

Thanks,

Rebecca

Click the column that has the duplicates you want to remove. 

 

Right click.

Thanks Chris,

 

Will this do it everytime the data is refreshed automatically in subsequent events?

 

Regards,

Rebecca
