Selectcolumns and Table Constructor

Hello,

 

Is there a way to create a new table in DAX using both Selectcolumn and Table Constructor to add a new column with a tag? I'm trying to use this to work around transposing an entire query that already has many DAX formulas in it so I don't want to push everything out to Power Query.

    Hi,

    That wasn't exactly it, but it lead me to the right format.

     

    Selectcolumns('TableName","Column Name",[Column Data],"Column 2 Name",{"Data"})

            (4, 5, 6,...),
            ...
        },
        "Column1", [Value1],
        "Column2", [Value2]
