Unpivoting
Unpivoting transforms columns into rows. It’s especially helpful when your data has repeating values spread across multiple columns — like months, regions, or years.
Power Query always creates the attribute-value pair by using two columns:
- Attribute: The name of the column headings that were unpivoted.
- Value: The values that were underneath each of the unpivoted column headings.
There are three ways that you can unpivot columns from a table:
- Unpivot columns
- Unpivot other columns
- Unpivot only selected columns
Pivoting
Pivoting does the reverse: it turns rows into columns. This is useful when you want to summarize data or restructure it for a specific format.
