Hi - I'm trying to come up with a way to only bring in certain data based on a date column in the Query Editor.
I have a date column that has the first day of each month for last year (January 1st, 2018; February 1st, 2018, etc)
I'm trying to filter my query so that I only get two months worth of 'last year' data returned. I want "Last Year This Month" and "Last Year Last Month" data.
Example: Today is August 28, 2019. I want to bring back August 2018 and July 2018 data in my query editor layer.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi CT767,
You might miss comma at the end of above row, I test my code in my enviornment, it will work well(no error, but result might not be what you want)
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("Zc5RCgAhCEXRvfgdpDY6tZZo/9tInCBlfg9yn3MCI/VKlaAAIaxy5HXhC+ogF7qDRuB8YQ0xeWJE4sk4w3xBa8vwPUJpRvKOZThnxSuaTmJlWKX9l9GkwVob", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [date = _t, v1 = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"date", type date}, {"v1", Int64.Type}}), #"FILTER"=Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type",each ([date] >=#date(Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow()) -1 , Date.Month(DateTime.LocalNow())-1, 1)) or ([date] <#date(Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow()) -1 , Date.Month(DateTime.LocalNow())+1, 1))) in #"FILTER"

Hi CT767,
You could try below query to see whether it works or not
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("Zc5RCgAhCEXRvfgdpDY6tZZo/9tInCBlfg9yn3MCI/VKlaAAIaxy5HXhC+ogF7qDRuB8YQ0xeWJE4sk4w3xBa8vwPUJpRvKOZThnxSuaTmJlWKX9l9GkwVob", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [date = _t, v1 = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"date", type date}, {"v1", Int64.Type}}), #"FILTER"=Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type",each ([date] >=#date(Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow()) -1 , Date.Month(DateTime.LocalNow())-1, 1)) and ([date] <#date(Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow()) -1 , Date.Month(DateTime.LocalNow())+1, 1))) in #"FILTER"

Hi @dax ,
I tried the below code, what you posted but changed the "AND" to "OR".
I'm getting an error "Expression.SyntaxError: Token Comma expected", I'm unable to find what comma i'm missing.
= Table.SelectRows(#"Removed Columns1", each ([Snapshot Date] >= #date(Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow())-1, Date.Month(DateTime.LocalNow())-1,1)) OR ([Snapshot Date] <#date(Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow())-1, Date.Month(DateTime.LocalNow())+1,1)))

Hi @Anonymous ,
To what I can understand you want to get the data base on an dinamic filter based on current date make a filter on the query: and select any date you will get something similar to this:
= Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type", each ([Date] = #date(2018, 8, 1) or [Date] = #date(2018, 12, 1)))
Then just change the date part of the two dates for the following formula:
= Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type", each ([Date] = #date(Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow()) -1 , Date.Month(DateTime.LocalNow()), 1) or [Date] = #date(Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow()) -1, 12, 1)))
This should give expected result.
