I am using power query to load some json data in a table (matches). I want to use a specific part of that data (fixture_id) as a parameter for another json request in another query (predictions), and then combine that output in my main (matches) table. Anyone can point me in the right direction on how to do this ?
So here is my matches table:
And then in my fixtures table i can maybe i have:
apiKey = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="ApiKey"]}[Content]{0}[Column1],
fixtureID = "?",
Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://v2.api-football.com/predictions/" & fixtureID, [Headers=[#"X-RapidAPI-Key"=apiKey]])),
If i hardcode the fixtureID, i get this output:
But i want to calculate it dynamically, and then merge the output to the matches table.
The first step is to turn your request into a function that accepts parameters. Put your request on a new blank query:
let
fnGetData = (fixtureID as text) =>
let
apiKey = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="ApiKey"]}[Content]{0}[Column1],
fixtureID = "?",
Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://v2.api-football.com/predictions/"
& fixtureID, [Headers=[#"X-RapidAPI-Key"=apiKey]]))
in
Source
in
fnGetData
Rename it to fnGetData.
Then, go to your table and click on Add Column/Add Custom Function. Select fnGetData and the input parameter is your fixtureID column. This should make all the requests and you'll just have to expand the new column results.

I'm trying to make a dynamic oData URL. This works, but it applies the filter after downloading the data set. I need to use query folding, so it applies filter in the oData Query.
Can someone point me in right direction
let
// Get Parameters
Params = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="tParams"]}[Content],
ItemNoValue = Params{0}[Value],
// Get D365 Data
Source = OData.Feed("https://xxxxxxxx&$filter=ItemNumber eq '11111111' &$select=dataAreaId,ItemNumber &$top=100", null, [Implementation="2.0"]),
#"Filter by Item Number" = Table.SelectRows(Source, each ([ItemNumber] = ItemNoValue))
in
#"Filter by Item Number"
What's also very strange is if I construct the URL in an excel cell, it STILL returns 30MB of data before displaying one row
let
// Get Parameters
UrlParam = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="URL"]}[Content],
UrlValue = UrlParam[Column1]{0},
Source = OData.Feed(UrlValue, null, [Implementation="2.0"])
in
Source
I have created a OData service which requires a filter.
This OData service is to be accessed from OData Feed option in Micorsoft Excel - Power Query.
OData URL -:
http://176.0.11.79:8000/sap/opu/odata/sap/Z_SALES_REPORT_TUBES_SRV/et_sales_report_tubesSet?$filter=
Spmon eq '20161101'
Now I need to pass the filter value of Spmon '20161101' as a parameter. This value is present in a different sheet in the same excel.
How to change the Query to allow the data to be passed from sheet rather than changing the URL every time.
Power Query will fold filters for OData, so you can use the autofilter or add the filter step yourself by adding a new step and adding the following formula through the formula bar:
= Table.SelectRows(PreviousStep, each [Spmon] = '20161101')
If it's from a different sheet that you loaded in a query SheetQuery, it will look like:
= Table.SelectRows(PreviousStep, each [Spmon] = SheetQuery{row_index}[column_name])
You will likely need to set the privacy levels for the OData source and worksheet, or you need to disable Privacy Levels through the Options dialog.
You can reference any cell in excel using the Excel.CurrentWorkbook function.
I prefer to name the cells and refer to them like below.
Then I build the uri.
I usually prefer to specify and edit the filters in excel as its easier to change that the mquery code. Technically the below should check if columns_1 and filters_1 are blank and not include in the URI.
company = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="company_1"]}[Content][Column1]{0}
, service = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="report_1"]}[Content][Column1]{0}
, columns_value = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="columns_1"]}[Content][Column1]{0}
, filter_value = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="filter_1"]}[Content][Column1]{0}
, selected_columns = "$select=" & columns_value
, filters = "&$filter=" & filter_value
, uri = "https://api.businesscentral.dynamics.com/v2.0/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/Production/ODataV4/Company('" & company & "')/"& service &"?" & selected_columns & filters
, Source = OData.Feed(uri, null, [Implementation="2.0"] )
I have found an alternate way of passing filters in Power Query (not directly from any sheet)
This was achieved by adding one more source in the Query and using this as variable in the OData Feed.
Spmon = "20161001" ,
Source = OData.Feed("http://176.0.11.79:8000/sap/opu/odata/sap/Z_SALES_REPORT_TUBES_SRV/
et_sales_report_tubesSet?$filter= Spmon eq '" & Spmon & "'")
This variable (Spmon) can be edited directly in the Advance Editor (Power Query) directly.
I'm trying to make a table of values inside hubot and he pass it's values to redis-brain.coffee but i just know a way: robot.brain.get("blablabla").
This will get a string from redis-brain and i need some kind of table.
How I'll use it:
At first call of this function, hubot will load the full database to the memory, then, if there's
robot.catchAll (msg) ->
if not quiet
text = msg.message.text
ector.setUser msg.message.user.name
if not loaded_brain
ector_brain = robot.brain.get('ector_brain') #need to be some type of table - In mysql should be like a select
ector.addEntry ector_brain
loaded_brain = true
else
ector.addEntry text
ector_brain = ector_brain+text #this line should insert the value of text inside ector_brain table. -- In mysql shoud be like an insert into
ector.linkNodesToLastSentence previousResponseNodes
response = ector.generateResponse()
previousResponseNodes = response.nodes
msg.reply response.sentence
So, how do I create a table in redis from hubot?
robot.brain.get and robot.brain.set operates with JSON objects, not only strings. Just place an object with your data structure of choice in the brain and get it back when necessary.
I have been able to get the values from tables using linq.
var q=(from app in context.Applicant
where app.ApplicantName=="")
Now what I want is this:
var q=(from app in context.Applicant
where app.stringIhave =="") // so instead of column name I have string which has same name as column.
Is it possible to specify string in Select as this is not sure what I will get in each case, I need different data all the time.
Is it possible to do so?
If no, then I will figure out something else.
Update
I have a GlobalString, which holds the column name of a table.
So when I query that table, I only specify from string which column value I want to get:
var q=(from app in context.Applicants
where app.ID==1013
select GlobalString //which is specifying that I want to get value from which column, as column name is not fixed.
//where GlobalString can have values like: app.FirstName..app.LastName etc
Update1:
var q = context.Applicants.Select("new(it.ApplicantFirstName as FirstName, it.ApplicantLastName as LastName)");
Error Message:
The query syntax is not valid. Near keyword 'AS'
You can use Dynamic Linq (available from NuGet) for that:
var q = context.Applicant.Where(app.stringIhave + " = #0", "");
for select you can try something like this
var q = context.Applicant.Select("new(it.FirstName as FirstName, it.LastName as LastName)");
so you only need construct string for that format
I have two tables. Both of them have a column named 'title'. When I use the following code snippet to join two tables, I can't access one of the title column.
$select = $this->select(Zend_Db_Table::SELECT_WITH_FROM_PART);
$select->setIntegrityCheck(false);
$select->join("service","service.id = lecture.service_id");
return $select;
is there a way to access both columns?
You need to rename one of the columns so it doesn't conflict with the other. If you pass an array as the optional 3rd argument to join(), you can specify which columns to retrieve from the joined table. If one or more of the entries in the array is hashed, then the hash key will be used as the property name. With the code below, you can refer to the title column of the service table as "service_title" in your query results. If you want other columns from the service table, add them to the array, with or without hashes as desired.
$select = $this->select(Zend_Db_Table::SELECT_WITH_FROM_PART);
$select->setIntegrityCheck(false);
$select->join("service", "service.id = lecture.service_id",
array("service_title" => "service.title");
return $select;
$select = $this->select();
$select->from(array('t'=>'table1'), array('table_title AS title_first','table_sendo_colun','table_third_colun'));
$select->setIntegrityCheck(false);
$select->join("service","service.id = t.service_id");
return $select;
Maybe It can do the job.
Regard´s.
