Helper IIIAzure Cost Management - Tags into two columns (TagName, TagValue)
Hey,
I connected PowerBI to Azure Cost Management and I would like to split the current JSON structure into two columns which should contain TagName and TagValue. Currently I did it via the following tutorial and it works quite fine but I want to have just two columns at the end. So the solution should look like the following.

| TagName | TagValue |
| environment | prod |
| environment | staging |
| CostCenter | 111111 |
Hi, lkshck
I don't think you need to have the column like = "{"&[Tags]&"}".
You can try splitting column values as follows:
1.Split selected column into multiple rows by delimiter 'Comma'
2.Split selected column into columns by delimiter 'Colon'
3.Replace quotation marks with empty values

Hi， lkshck
What roughly does your current JSON structure look like? Have you tried splitting column values according to some rules?

lkshckSo normal data structure of the Tags column looks like the following:
I want to split this structure into two Columns, TagName and TagValue. So the TagName column should contain every value before the ":" and TagValue the value after ":".
Hope this is more clear.
