Row to Column Transformation

I have data in below format:

 

DateAsset IDValue
1/1/2022150
1/2/2022255
1/3/2022360
1/4/2022465


I would like to transform this table below:

 

A common date column, but each asset having its own column.  Any tips? Either as a calculated table or via Power Query.

 

DateAsset 1Asset 2Asset 3Asset 4Value

Is this an output you are looking for?

if yes, in Power Query select Asset and Value and use pivot column.

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WckksSVXSUXIsLk4tUfB0ATLDEnNKU5VidaKVDPUN9Y0MjIyAgoZAbGoAFTWCiYKwqSlU1BgmagzEZjC1JjBRE5AoUG0sAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"(blank)" = _t, #"(blank).1" = _t, #"(blank).2" = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"(blank)", type text}, {"(blank).1", type text}, {"(blank).2", type text}}),
    #"Promoted Headers" = Table.PromoteHeaders(#"Changed Type", [PromoteAllScalars=true]),
    #"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Promoted Headers",{{"Date", type date}, {"Asset ID", Int64.Type}, {"Value", Int64.Type}}),
    #"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Changed Type1", {{"Asset ID", type text}}, "en-AU"), List.Distinct(Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Changed Type1", {{"Asset ID", type text}}, "en-AU")[#"Asset ID"]), "Asset ID", "Value"),
    #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Pivoted Column",{{"1", "Asset 1"}, {"2", "Asset 2"}, {"3", "Asset 3"}, {"4", "Asset 4"}})
in
    #"Renamed Columns"
