7 MIND BLOWING Power Query Functions (Beyond the User Interface)

In this blog, I’m going to explain 7 of the most important Power Query functions that help you go beyond the user interface and solve advanced data cleaning problems. The video is divided into three parts:

Part 1: Enhancing UI Functions: We’ll explore how to tweak built-in functions like table.addcolumns and table.pivot for custom solutions.

Part 2: Beyond the UI (Core M Functions): We’ll dive into powerful M functions not found in the UI, including table.group, table.skip, table.twocolumns, table.fromcolumns, and list.transform.

Part 3: List Transformations & Automation: We’ll focus on list.transform in detail, showing how to automate data transformations, handle errors with the “try keyword,” and dynamically generate lists for tasks like unpivoting.
