  3. DYNAMIC (new, only for links to the same sheet): The join is based on the current grouping columns, so it is no longer fixed and changes with the grouping. Additionally, you have the option to include extra columns beyond the grouping ("includes") or exclude certain columns from the grouping ("excludes").
