Use a step as filter for previous step

Hi.  Fairly new to power query.   

 

I want the Filtered Rows deleted in the Changed type.  

Also is there a list or website of all the commands in Power Query (ie SelectRows)?

  • 1. Right click on Filtered Rows, then "Move before".

     

    2.  Power Query comes with all the documentation baked in.  Use #shared for a complete list of every single command and function and artifact.  Each artifact comes with documentation too.  Type 

    = Table.SelectColumns

    to see the documentation for that function.

      1  I should been clearer what I'm trying to do.  The Filtered Rows is data I want removed from the Changed Type while keeping the rest of the data.  If the two steps could be joined (either by joining the data or coding a step to do a join/filter).

      (note : I found an alternate solution : use a multi condition filter).  I would still like to see if there is a solution using the join)

       

      2 Where do I use the #shared? I've tried the help, the steps, and Google (just in case).

        1. Any solution that does not use a join is better than a solution requiring a join.  Read about query folding too.

         

        2. create a new blank query, enter "= #shared"
