Aggregate REST URLs

I am looking to aggregate a list of URLs by their prefix.

 

say a list of these prefix goes like this:

Get url1/action1/

Get url1/action2/

Get url2/action/

Post url3

 

and another list:

Get url1/action1/36465

Get url1/action1/95667

Get url1/action2/i58483

 

How can I map a prefix to all of its calls, in order to run an aggregate query?

 

Thanks

Hi @kalcey,

 

You can use below formula to get the prefix part of url string:

 

#"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "Custom", each Text.Range([Column1],0, Text.PositionOf([Column1], "/", Occurrence.Last)+1))
