Hi Augusto_101 ,
Go to the Transform tab and click on Transpose. This will transpose your table, swapping rows and columns. --> Add a index column --> Replace Values --> Remove the index column --> Transpose.
All steps and the output:let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WUtJRMtQ30jcyMDIAMoHICMIzhPCMYbxYHbBaX38/F8dIiFxIqGswnBPu6uIH4YJU+helpBaBlOfn6bokVhZDmX6Z6RklIE5IaWoxTALMhsuEp6ZAJEDGGJoYmxuaQ52CQAgpE9xS5kCuhR6CNNKzhLPNlGJjAQ==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Column7 = _t, Column8 = _t, Column9 = _t, Column10 = _t, Column11 = _t, Column12 = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Column7", type text}, {"Column8", type text}, {"Column9", type text}, {"Column10", type text}, {"Column11", type text}, {"Column12", type text}}), Transpose = Table.Transpose(#"Changed Type"), #"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(Transpose, "Index", 1, 1, Int64.Type), ReplaceValues = Table.ReplaceValue(#"Added Index", each [Column3], each if List.Contains({2,4,6},[Index]) then [Column1] else [Column3], Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"Column3"}), #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(ReplaceValues,{"Index"}), TransposeBack = Table.Transpose(#"Removed Columns") in TransposeBackBest Regards,

Augusto_101 , add more column names if necessary
let
Source = your_table,
col_names = {"Column8", "Column10", "Column12"},
z =
Table.ReplaceRows(
Source, 2, 1,
{Record.RemoveFields(Source{2}, col_names) & Record.SelectFields(Source{0}, col_names)}
)
in
z
