2 years agoRead & Manipulate Delta Table from Lakehouse in Excel via Power Query
Hi everybody, I have a scenario where I produce a table of 1000 - 2000 Rows in a Fabric Lakehouse using a Fabric Notebook. I now want to manipulate individual Cells and load that manipulated tab...

2 years agoIt does seem that there is no direkt way to get Deltatable into Excel at the moment.
I would be very interested to know whether Microsoft is planning to implement the DeltaLake.Table into PQ in Excel as well. Would be very welcome 🙂
I helped myslef by using a Dataflow Gen1 to get the Delta Table and then connecto to it with PQ in Excel. Seems unnecessarily cumbersome with 1 hop to many.
I also thought about using the Notebook that is creating the Delta Table to also/instead write a .csv or maybe even Excel into the lakhouses Files Area to access that directly with PQ in Excel.
Havent tried that yet.
I would be very happy to hear any suggestions on how to make this a less cumbersome endeavour 😉
Best regards,
Joachim
