I'm accessing a table in a SQL database through Excel Power Query and I want to do a join with some data that I have in a excel sheet. I don't have write access to the database so I'm not able to just create a table with the Excel data there.

Is there a good workaround that would allow me to join the database table with the data in the Excel sheet?

If you load the data from the SQL database in a query you can merge it with another query in the power query editor. You just have to navigate to the power query editor and find the merge button.

The editor will ask which are the two queries you want to merge and to indicate which columns contain the matching data. Several types of join are supported.
