And I need to add a column as below:

Hey @Anonymous ,

 

yes, that's easily managable.

Go to Power Query to your Query1, then choose "Add Column" --> "Custom Column" and then add the Text "Query1":

Afterwards the column will appear in your table.

 

If you need any help please let me know.

Hello, Thanks for your reponse. 

Sorry, I need to be more clear on my requirement. My Query name is dynamic, Everytime, its not possible to go and change the text in the Custom column step.

Instead I need a step to add the name of the Query name.

@Anonymous  then tell us where you get the dynamic name from and I might find a solution.

By the way, if you answer always mark people with an @- Symbol. Otherwise I will not be informed about the new reply.

the dynamic name is the Query name only. I need to get the Query name as a column values.

is there any custom column functions to get the required output. Please refer to the images attached in the initial query.
