    Hello sirpentagon 

     

    I don't know in witch format do you have this tags. I tried to find a solution if every tag is a row from a single-column table.

    let
    	Source = #table
    	(
    		{"Column1"},
    		{
    			{"{""Name"":""Test"", ""CreatedBy"":""SuperAdmin""}"},	{"{""Build"":""001"", ""CreatedBy"":""SuperAdmin""}"},	{"{""Name"":""Test2"", ""CreatedBy"":""NormalUser""}"},	
    			{"{""Name"":""Test"", ""CreatedBy"":""Admin"", ""CreatedOn"":""02012020""}"}
    		}
    	),
    	AddRecords = Table.AddColumn
    	(
    		Source,
    		"Records",
    		(add)=> 
    		let 
    			ReplaceData = Text.Remove(add[Column1], {"{", "}", """"}),
    			SplitRecords = Text.Split(ReplaceData, ","),
    			ToTable = Table.FromList(SplitRecords, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), {"Name"}),
    			SplitColumn = Table.SplitColumn(ToTable, "Name", Splitter.SplitTextByDelimiter(":"), {"Name", "Value"}),
    			ToRecords = Record.FromTable(SplitColumn),
    			TabelToRecords = Table.FromRecords({ToRecords})
    
    
    		in 
    			TabelToRecords
    	),
    	Combine = Table.Combine
    	(
    		AddRecords[Records]
    	)
    
    in
        Combine
