filtering on multiple columns
- Anonymous1 year ago
Hi wynhodgkiss,
Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Forum Community.
You can try the following Power Query code to achieve your goal(Modify according to your requirement).
Source = Folder.Files("C:\Users\YourName\OneDrive\YourFolderPath"),
FilteredCSVs = Table.SelectRows(Source, each Text.EndsWith([Extension], ".csv")),
Imported = Table.AddColumn(FilteredCSVs, "Content", each Csv.Document(File.Contents([Folder Path] & [Name]), [Delimiter=",", Columns=3, Encoding=65001, QuoteStyle=QuoteStyle.None])),
Expanded = Table.ExpandTableColumn(Imported, "Content", {"Column1", "Column2", "Column3"}, {"WeekRef", "Index", "Name"}),// Change data types
ChangedTypes = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Expanded, {{"WeekRef", type text}, {"Index", Int64.Type}, {"Name", type text}}),// Sort by Index (ascending)
Sorted = Table.Sort(ChangedTypes, {{"Index", Order.Ascending}}),// Remove duplicates based on WeekRef
Deduplicated = Table.Distinct(Sorted, {"WeekRef"}),// Select final columns
Final = Table.SelectColumns(Deduplicated, {"WeekRef", "Index", "Name"})
in
FinalAs a side note, is there any possibility that a newer file could have a higher Index due to sync delays or upload timing? If so, how would you suggest handling that edge case?
If this solution helped, please consider marking the response as accepted and giving it a thumbs-up so others can benefit as well.
