I am new in PW BI,

Could you help me? 

 

For exemple ( simple) I have 2 tables loading:

 

1.

 

AB
11
22
33

 

2.

AD
25
36
47

 

I try to get tables 3 in script: 

 

AC ( B and D)
11
22
25
33
36
47

 

How can I get it? 

 

Thanks!

You could either try PowerQuery or DAX, see below sample and attached pbix file.

let
    SelectAndRenameColumnsFromTable1 = Table.RenameColumns(Table.SelectColumns(Table1,{"A","B"}),{"B","C"}),
    SelectAndRenameColumnsFromTable2 = Table.RenameColumns(Table.SelectColumns(Table2,{"A","D"}),{"D","C"}),
    CombineAboutTwo = Table.Combine({SelectAndRenameColumnsFromTable1,SelectAndRenameColumnsFromTable2})
in
    CombineAboutTwo
combinedTableInDax =
UNION (
    SELECTCOLUMNS ( Table1, "A", Table1[A], "C", Table1[B] ),
    SELECTCOLUMNS ( Table2, "A", Table2[A], "C", Table2[D] )
)

Thanks,

But If I have in first table - 6 columns and in second table - 8


6 columns are similar.

 

Are there working for only two columns?

You can just add more colulmns in the SELECT columns in my previous post.
