I've started with a subset of your data but it works the same for your full dataset. The code extracts the month and year and fills the entire column with what's extracted.
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WcnVRCC3JzMksTizJzM/Tq8gpVtJRci1JLFFISVXISVQoTs1JTQZJKcXq4FAdkFqUmZtaUpSKW4mvv2dwvKOfo09ksKuVgmN+aQlutY5+fq6uCMVGBkaGeBS7u/qFxDu6ubk6hziGePr7KcXGAgA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Source.Name = _t, #"Agent ID" = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Source.Name", type text}, {"Agent ID", type text}}), #"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Changed Type", "Index", 0, 1, Int64.Type), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Index", "Month", each if Text.Contains([Agent ID], "MOIS_ANALYSE") then Text.Trim(Text.AfterDelimiter([Agent ID], ":")) else null), #"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom", "Year", each if Text.Contains([Agent ID], "ANNEE_ANALYSE") then Text.Trim(Text.AfterDelimiter([Agent ID], ":")) else null), #"Sorted Rows" = Table.Sort(#"Added Custom1",{{"Month", Order.Descending}}), #"Filled Down" = Table.FillDown(#"Sorted Rows",{"Month"}), #"Sorted Rows1" = Table.Sort(#"Filled Down",{{"Year", Order.Descending}}), #"Filled Down1" = Table.FillDown(#"Sorted Rows1",{"Year"}), #"Sorted Rows2" = Table.Sort(#"Filled Down1",{{"Index", Order.Ascending}}), #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Sorted Rows2",{"Index"}) in #"Removed Columns"I don't have your file so you'll need to copy my code into yours from the #"Added Index" step onwards.
This is the result

Extracting the month and year is pretty simple but how do you want this data stored? You want an entire column filled with Aout 2021?
