Convert JSON data to new columns

Im trying to convert a column with JSON-data to new columns. This is my input:



I need my output like this:

 

I'm trying to convert my 'assessments' column to JSON in the Power Query Editor, but not getting the right outcome:

 

 

let
Source = objects,
#"Parsed JSON" = Table.TransformColumns(Source,{{"assessments", Json.Document}}),
#"Expanded assessments" = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(#"Parsed JSON", "assessments", {"36", "43"}, {"product_id", "value"})
in
#"Expanded assessments"

 

 

 

Thanks in advance!

 

  • Hi lionzandvliet ,

     

    If you have the information has you present in the first image you just need to make some addtional steps:

    • Remove the { }
    • Split columns to rows using the comma +space ", " separator:

     

    • Split column by delimiter two dots ":"

    Check PBIX file attach, it's not based on JSON but you only need the steps after "opening" the JSON that is what I show here.
