Power Query only load filtered rows
I´ve a spreadsheet with filtered rows. I´d like to load only the already filtered data to PowerQuery.
Is there a way to do this?

In addition. Not repeat in Power Query exactly the same set of filters as in Excel table you may add helper column to the Table as
=(AGGREGATE(3,5,[@A])=1)+0there [A] is any column within the table assuming it has no blank values. Similar could be for the range. Formula returns 1 for visible rows and 0 for hided ones.
Within the PowerQuery as first steps filter result on zero for this column and remove it. That shall work for any filter applied in Excel sheet.
SergeiBaklan Thank you for this - a really neat solution - has helped me enormously solve a problem
I'm not an author, it's known for a long while. In any case glad it helped.
- Love this! I can now get rid of some fiddly VBA code which copies selected table records across to a new table.
- Devious. I must study that AGGREGATE function more!
- I don't think you can, you must repeat the filtering in PQ.
