As businesses generate and rely on ever-growing volumes of data, the challenge of managing and analyzing it efficiently has become a critical bottleneck for decision-making. Excel’s Get & Transform feature, powered by Power Query, offers a solution by streamlining the ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) process. Far beyond simple spreadsheet manipulation, Power Query is a robust tool that allows users to extract data from various sources, transform it to fit analytical needs, and load it into Excel with automation capabilities that save time and reduce errors.
