Hello Power-Query Community,
I want to innerjoin the distinct values from two columns from two tables (queries) in one single step in Power Query as a new table (query). Can this be done?
Table 1
| Target Column | Random Column 1 | Random Column 2 |
| 1 | d | b |
| 1 | q | d |
| 2 | b | d |
| 2 | d | b |
Table 2
| Target Column | Random Column 1 | Random Column 2 |
| 1 | f | h |
| 1 | k | e |
| 2 | g | f |
| 2 | g | h |
| 3 | w | r |
| 3 | f | v |
Expected Results Table
| Result Column |
| 1 |
| 2 |
I already tried something like:
= Table.Join(
Table.Distinct(Table1,{"TargetColumn"}),
Table.Distinct(Table2,{"TargetColumn"}),
"Expected Results Table",
JoinKind.InnerJoin
)
Can someone guide me into the right direction?
Many thanks in advance.
Solved! Go to Solution.
=Table.FromColumns({List.Distinct(List.Intersect({Table1[col],Table2[col]}))},{"Result"})
thank you!
=Table.FromColumns({List.Distinct(List.Intersect({Table1[col],Table2[col]}))},{"Result"})
