Hi Team,
I am having column names which are having 1000 length and more but i want a dynamic column name as per my requirement using abbreviation for that column. Kindly suggest how we can achieve it.
@amitchandak Please help
Thanks in advance

If you just want to create abbreviations for multiple column names You can use Table.Renamecolumns.
Table.RenameColumns - PowerQuery M | Microsoft Docs
Are you wanting to map the current column names to corresponding abbreviate versions or just limit the number of characters in the column names?
