Power Query Combine Rows Into A Single Cell With Text Combine

A question came in from someone who wanted to know how to merge rows of data into a single cell.

Imagine you have a person's name in one column and then details about the person on multiple rows; and then another name and details about that person; and so on ...

Now you'd like to merge each person's details so that each person and their respective details are on a single row with their details in a single cell/column.

To do this, I show Power Query and the Text.Combine function.

This video also demonstrates my example of building a small model so that we can focus on the solution and not a massive amount of our real data.

#Text.Combine

#PowerQuery
#Grouping
