Table.Join
Table.Join(table1 as table, key1 as any, table2 as table, key2 as any, optional joinKind as nullable number, optional joinAlgorithm as nullable number, optional keyEqualityComparers as nullable list) as table
Joins the rows of table1
with the rows of table2
based on the equality of the values of the key columns selected by key1
(for table1
) and key2
(for table2
).
By default, an inner join is performed, however an optional joinKind
may be included to specify the type of join. Options include:
- JoinKind.Inner
- JoinKind.LeftOuter
- JoinKind.RightOuter
- JoinKind.FullOuter
- JoinKind.LeftAnti
- JoinKind.RightAnti
- JoinKind.LeftSemi
- JoinKind.RightSemi
An optional set of keyEqualityComparers
may be included to specify how to compare the key columns. This parameter is currently intended for internal use only.
Join two tables using a single key column.
Usage
Table.Join(
Table.FromRecords({
[CustomerID = 1, Name = "Bob", Phone = "123-4567"],
[CustomerID = 2, Name = "Jim", Phone = "987-6543"],
[CustomerID = 3, Name = "Paul", Phone = "543-7890"],
[CustomerID = 4, Name = "Ringo", Phone = "232-1550"]
}),
"CustomerID",
Table.FromRecords({
[OrderID = 1, CustomerID = 1, Item = "Fishing rod", Price = 100.0],
[OrderID = 2, CustomerID = 1, Item = "1 lb. worms", Price = 5.0],
[OrderID = 3, CustomerID = 2, Item = "Fishing net", Price = 25.0],
[OrderID = 4, CustomerID = 3, Item = "Fish tazer", Price = 200.0],
[OrderID = 5, CustomerID = 3, Item = "Bandaids", Price = 2.0],
[OrderID = 6, CustomerID = 1, Item = "Tackle box", Price = 20.0],
[OrderID = 7, CustomerID = 5, Item = "Bait", Price = 3.25]
}),
"CustomerID"
)
Output
Table.FromRecords({
[CustomerID = 1, Name = "Bob", Phone = "123-4567", OrderID = 1, Item = "Fishing rod", Price = 100],
[CustomerID = 1, Name = "Bob", Phone = "123-4567", OrderID = 2, Item = "1 lb. worms", Price = 5],
[CustomerID = 2, Name = "Jim", Phone = "987-6543", OrderID = 3, Item = "Fishing net", Price = 25],
[CustomerID = 3, Name = "Paul", Phone = "543-7890", OrderID = 4, Item = "Fish tazer", Price = 200],
[CustomerID = 3, Name = "Paul", Phone = "543-7890", OrderID = 5, Item = "Bandaids", Price = 2],
[CustomerID = 1, Name = "Bob", Phone = "123-4567", OrderID = 6, Item = "Tackle box", Price = 20]
})
Join two tables that have conflicting column names, using multiple key columns.
Usage

}),
orders = Table.FromRecords({
[TenantID = 1, OrderID = 1, CustomerID = 1, Name = "Fishing rod", Price = 100.0],
[TenantID = 1, OrderID = 2, CustomerID = 1, Name = "1 lb. worms", Price = 5.0],
[TenantID = 1, OrderID = 3, CustomerID = 2, Name = "Fishing net", Price = 25.0]
})
in
