There isn\u2019t a great solution today, the most common workaround being to use ForAll and Ungroup functions together and is not intuitive.<\/p>\n<p>Now there is a better way. The Table function has been expanded to combine tables as well as records. For example, the result of `Table( [1,2], [3,4] )` is now the table `[1,2,3,4]`. This feature is in preview environments now and will be deployed more broadly starting next week.<\/p>\n<p>The Table function can now also be used to append records to a table, for example ` Table( { Value: &#8220;XS&#8221; }, [ &#8220;S&#8221;, &#8220;M&#8221;, &#8220;L&#8221; ], { Value: &#8220;XL&#8221; } )` results in the table `[&#8220;XS&#8221;, &#8220;S&#8221;, &#8220;M&#8221;, &#8220;L&#8221;, &#8220;XL&#8221;]`.<\/p>\n<p>\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Learn more<\/strong> at <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-platform\/power-fx\/reference\/function-table\">Table function &#8211; Power Platform | Microsoft Learn<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-27749\" height=\"393\" src=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/CombiningTables.png\" width=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/CombiningTables.webp 567w, https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/CombiningTables-300x208.webp 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 567px) 100vw, 567px\" \/><\/div>\n<h3>Power Fx EncodeHTML function<\/h3>\n<p>\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As Power Fx becomes used more for generating HTML, we need a good way to escape the tags, a facility common in many other languages.<\/p>\n<p>Welcome the EncodeHTML function. This function will replace tag and entity characters with their equivalent HTML representations, so that they will display as raw text on a web page.

Hence, users end up waiting for long time to open the app they use everyday. This experience hampers their productivity and leads to frustrations when devices are low end.
