Mashup Code for VLOOKUP in Power Query

I have a field in a lookup table that I want to bring into a fact table, is there Mashup Code for VLOOKUP in Power Query Editor? I want to avoid using ‘Combine Tables’.

@gareth.jones,

Merge is the VLOOKUP equivalent in Power Query. It can be done via UI or M code, but I’m not aware of an additional M function that will do the equivalent.

Thank you all for the support, I ended up finding the solution I was after by ‘Add Custom Column’, and with " = <table_name>" I inserted the table and was able to expand the table to introduce the fields needed as an exact match (replicating the vlookup).
