Anyone here with experience using the Etherscan api? I'm having some challenge with transaction values.
The api is dumping decimal numbers into pbi as integers and I'm not sure how to either correctly pull or a way to clean the data.

Solved! Go to Solution.
Great, that got me thinking on the right path, thank you! What I did was:
1- extract the first four digits from "value" column
2- count the characters in "value" column
3-divide first four digit column with a calculated column using IFs based on the character count to divide by 1xxxx (x being 0)
@abujouz86 good to hear that you found the solution. Thanks for sharing, I hope others will find it useful. Cheers!!

@abujouz86 value column in Power BI is shown in Power Query? Not sure why .0205 will come as such a huge number. what value do you see before changing the data type step?
