Power query
Can anyone help me to show what syntax to be used I. Power query editor to get the count of skills
Use following formula in a custom column
= List.Count(Text.Split([skills],","))Hi AtchayaP ,
Do your cells contain duplicate or empty skills? If so, please try this formula to see if it returns the correct result.
= List.Count(List.RemoveItems( List.Distinct( Text.Split([skills],",")), {null,""," "} ))If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.
Best Regards,
Winniz
