AndrejZevzikov , You have the option of power query fill down. Right click on the column in power query -> Fill -> Down

Hi, AndrejZevzikov
please check the below picture.
You can right-click the column name.
Sometimes, if it does not work, please change the blank to null.
Then, try fill-down option.
