Table name change for each new project
- 5 years ago
Hi clem312
You could first connect to project 1 with the native query in your original post to create a query. Then modify its M codes in Advanced editor like below to convert it into a custom function.
VarAskList and varAskCall are two variables which we use to replace the "AskCall1" and "AskList1" strings in original query codes. I name it as functionQuery.
(varAskList as text, varAskCall as text) => let Source = Sql.Database("server name", "database name", [Query="SELECT Statistic_Agent.CallID, Lists.dbo." & varAskList & ".AskInterview, Lists.dbo." & varAskList & ".QUOTA7 FROM Lists.dbo." & varAskList & " INNER JOIN Lists.dbo." & varAskCall & " ON Lists.dbo." & varAskList & ".AskInterview = Lists.dbo." & varAskCall & ".AskInterview INNER JOIN Statistic_Agent ON Lists.dbo." & varAskCall & ".CallID = Statistic_Agent.CallID", CreateNavigationProperties=false]) in SourceCreate a table which includes table names for 500 projects.
let projectList = List.Generate(() => 1, each _ <= 500, each _ + 1), #"Converted to Table" = Table.FromList(projectList, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error), #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Converted to Table",{{"Column1", "Project Number"}}), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Renamed Columns", "Table1", each "AskList"&Text.From([Project Number])), #"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom", "Table2", each "AskCall"&Text.From([Project Number])) in #"Added Custom1"After that, invoke the function functionQuery to add a new column in the previous table. We use the two table name columns for paramters varAskList and var AskCall in the function.
After invoking the function, you will see a new table column similar to below. Click the expand icon on the column header to expand the tables. You will have all 500 project data in the query.

Hi v-jingzhang
Just a question. When a table doesn't exist, I have an error in the Load of course.
How is it possible to upload tables OK and ignore the error ?

Hi clem312 , sorry for the late reply.
Before expanding the TableContent columns, you could remove the rows which contain Errors. Select this column, go to Home > Remove Rows and select Remove Errors.
