Hi,
I can’t figure how to do this in Power Query. I have a table with two columns, Product_ID and Product_Name. It turns out that in some cases I have multiple Product_Name s for a given Product_ID. What I want to do is convert these duplicates so Product_Name contains the concatenation of the product names.
For example
| Product_ID | Product_Name |
| 1 | Apple |
| 1 | Peach |
| 2 | Cherry |
| 1 | Orange |
To
| Product_ID | Product_Name |
| 1 | Apple_Peach_Orange |
| 2 | Cherry |
Any ideas?
Thanks,
-Wes
Solved! Go to Solution.
See the working here - Open a blank query - Home - Advanced Editor - Remove everything from there and paste the below code to test
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMlTSUXIsKMhJVYrVgfACUhOTM8A8IyDPOSO1qKgSLulflJiXDlQbCwA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Product_ID = _t, Product_Name = _t]),
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(Source, {"Product_ID"}, {{"Count", each Text.Combine([Product_Name],"_"), type text}})
in
#"Grouped Rows"
Brilliant. Thanks so much.
