Hi, new power BI user here.
I've got a bunch of tables that have very similar data in them that I'm looking at together. So I have a bunch of columns with the same header name. When I start pulling fields into visualizations, the source of the data thus gets confused. Is there a way to globally rename all of the column headers so that instead of fields being named:
Column 1, Column 1, Column 1, ...
I can see Column headers named as:
Table 1 Column 1, Table 2 Column 1, Table 3 Column 1, ...
Thanks!

Yes. The manual way would be to go to the data view and right-click each column header and select "Rename". The quicker, and more efficient way is to do it via your data input query.
