In Power BI, you can establish data relationships and use Power Query to perform joins to merge multiple data tables into a cohesive dataset. By defining these relationships and using functions like merge queries, you can seamlessly combine data from different sources based on common keys, enhancing data integration and enabling in-depth analysis. In this course, you will discover how to create relationships between tables that will allow you to perform more complex inter-table operations. Next, you will learn how to perform SQL-style joins on two tables. Power BI offers numerous types of joins, including inner, outer, left, right, left anti, and right anti joins. You will implement all of these join techniques to define the differences between them and describe their use cases. You will also learn how to pivot and aggregate data in Power Query. Finally, you will explore fuzzy merging to perform joins for inexact matches. This course will provide you with a foundation for how to perform exact and fuzzy joins in Power BI.
