In this video, I’ll teach you how to use the View tab in Power Query to improve your workflow and data quality analysis. We go over practical features like toggling panes, enabling the formula bar, using monospace fonts for better readability, and leveraging powerful tools like Column Quality, Column Distribution, and Show White Space. I show you how these tools can reveal data completeness, errors, and repeated values before transformations even begin. You’ll also learn how to handle whitespace, data type errors, and replace error values, all with the goal of preparing your dataset for more accurate and reliable analysis in Power BI. This video is ideal for users seeking clean, trustworthy data models in Excel or Power BI.
