RenameColumns — Power Fx function reference

Syntax

RenameColumns( Table, OldName1, NewName1 [, OldName2, NewName2, ... ] )

Examples

RenameColumns(Staff, "First", "FirstName")

RenameColumns(Staff, "First", "FirstName", "Last", "LastName")

ClearCollect(colDisplay, RenameColumns('SharePoint List', "Title", "TaskName"))

Common mistakes & gotchas

• A frequent pattern right after pulling from SharePoint is renaming its generic "Title" column to something meaningful for downstream formulas.
• RenameColumns errors if OldName does not exist or NewName collides with an existing column — check carefully when the source schema changes.
