Removing duplicate data

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

Thanks Chris,

 

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