851, 1259
903, 899, 927, 935
915, 921, 815, 1223
1235

943, 1197, 1247, 1125, 1123, 1195, 1235, 1237

@Grewin , Split the column tag id in table two into rows

https://www.tutorialgateway.org/how-to-split-columns-in-power-bi/

 

And group the table with count (if needed duplicate)

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-query/group-by

 

Then merge the two tables.

 : https://radacad.com/append-vs-merge-in-power-bi-and-power-query

 

or Also step 1

 

come to DAX and create a new column in Table 1

 

COuntx(filter(Table2, Table1[Tag id] = Table2[Tag_ids]) , Table2[Tag id])
