Power Query if statements allow users to selectively extract data from a dataset based on a set of conditions. This can be done using the if, if or, and if and functions.
The if function is used to evaluate a single condition and then return a specific result if the condition is met.
The if or function is used to evaluate multiple conditions and then return a specific result if any of the conditions are met.
The if and function is used to evaluate multiple conditions and then return a specific result if all of the conditions are met.
Nested ifs are used when if statements are combined together. This allows users to evaluate multiple conditions and then return a specific result depending on which condition is met. Nested ifs can be used to create more complex queries.

If the value in column A is greater than 10 OR the value in column B is greater than 20 AND the value in column C is greater than 30, then return the row.
