Hi Anonymous ,
Text.contails could not work on more then one values, similar error refer:
And change yours to the below:
if Text.Contains([Product], "1") or Text.Contains([Product], "2") or Text.Contains([Product], "3") or Text.Contains([Product], "4") or Text.Contains([Product], "5") or Text.Contains([Product], "6") or Text.Contains([Product], "7") or Text.Contains([Product], "8") or Text.Contains([Product], "9") or Text.Contains([Product], "0") then "True" else "False"Did I answer your question? Mark my post as a solution!

It shouldn't return an error. Is the Product column set as type Text?

Yes it's set as Text. I get an Expression. Error. Not possible to convert the type Type to type Text.
Information:
Value=[Type]
Type=[Type]
