Quick data inspection
In Pandas (Python library), you can call an inspect() function which returns details such as the total number of rows and the number of nulls and errors in each column. Is there any similar feat...

Something else you can try Anonymous is using the built in visual components of Power Query below. Check out the View Tab in Power Query:
- Column Quality (blue arrow) will show how many errors, empties, or valid cells there are in the current field.
- Column Distribution (red arrow) will give an idea of how many are unique and the approx distribution of values.
- Column Profile (green arrows) will take up half of your screen but provide a wealth of information on the selected column.
- In the red box, you can tell the Column profile to use the full data set vs just 1,000 rows which is the default, but be forewarned, if you have a few million rows, it will take a minute to generate the profile. If you have tens of millions or hundreds of millions of records, I would not advise analysing the full data set that way unless you don't want to use your computer for a while. 😁

Hello Anonymous
Try Table.Profile ( create a new query and input you queryname into this function). When you just need the rows use Table.RowCount.
