Blank rows are there after combining 2 data files in Power BI data Table

Posted on by

Hi, there are 2 files  e.g. File 1_Resolved tickets and File 2_Unresolved tickets. Both contain similar data. Files are combined using Power query editor and it combined correctly. But, when i see combined data table then there are 2 issues :

1. Column headers are repeated and coming as new row

2. There are multiple blank cells in the data table.

M Code is attached as available in advanced editor.

 

Could you please help me to figure out the reason of above 2 issues and how to overcome it?

    @Syndicate_Admin  - Thank you for your response.

    In share Point hosted Excel files, i deleted the blank rows and that's it. No blanks in Power Query imported data.

    Than you so much for quick easy fix.

    Your method worked. I applied the following at "Transform Sample File" after the last applied steps: = Table.SelectRows(#"Promoted Headers", each not List.IsEmpty(List.RemoveMatchingItems(Record.FieldValues(_), {"", null})))
