Hi damit230183 ,
Try the following steps:
- Group by Field Name
- Add a custom Column wiht index
- Expand the new column
- Delete the previous group by column
- Pivot by Field Name and don't aggregate the Value
- Delete index column
See the full code below:
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMlTSUQrKz0kFUsGlSVmpySVKsToQ4eCSxBKQeEhqRWIxWNQIu2IjJMV+qeUKkflF2TjUKxhi6HDLyS/KTElUio0FAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"File Name" = _t, #"Field Name" = _t, Value = _t]), #"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(Source, {"Field Name"}, {{"Count", each _, type table [File Name=nullable text, Field Name=nullable text, Value=nullable text]}}), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Grouped Rows", "Custom", each Table.AddIndexColumn ([Count], "Index", 1)), #"Expanded Custom1" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Added Custom", "Custom", {"File Name", "Value", "Index"}, {"File Name", "Value", "Index"}), #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Expanded Custom1",{"Count"}), #"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(#"Removed Columns", List.Distinct(#"Removed Columns"[#"Field Name"]), "Field Name", "Value") in #"Pivoted Column"Believe this is what you need please let me know if there is the need for any further assistance
