Help Creating a Table to Average Multiple Different Columns
Hello!
I currently have a table that I am importing that includes 48 columns in it. These are each labeled "Ch01", "Ch02", "Ch03", and so on.
I am trying to create a new table which contains 2 columns, the first one being the column name from original table (so Ch01 for the first row, Ch02 for the 2nd row, ...) then where the 2nd column is the average value for that column channel name. So the first row the 2nd column would be the average value from "Ch01". Is there an easy way to do this in PowerBi Desktop?
Example images of existing table:

Sorry if this is a simple question, I am new to using PowerBI.
Thank you!
