Join

Join with another file/table

What It Does

Join combines data from two files based on matching column values. Like VLOOKUP in Excel but more powerful. Supports inner, left, right, and full outer joins.

How to Use It

Opening the Panel

Click the + button in the toolbar or press the operation picker, then search for "Join". It's in the Data group.
