Hierarchy from a list

Anonymous,

You can get the above result by performing several steps in Query Editor of Power BI Desktop(Unpivot column, insert three new columns, add custom column….).


The steps generate the following code in Advanced Editor of the query, you can add a new blank query in Power BI Desktop, copy the following code and paste it to the Advanced Editor of  the blank query, then check the result.

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("Tc7BCQAxCETRXjxnQd0K4iZVBPtvI2Ez4By8PPwwa4mp6nNOmnTJdsAKSAxC5KC45NWRoItehC7o6wV9P3ltGhdq0yAxCJGDpmRu", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Organization ID" = _t, Name = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Organization ID", type text}, {"Name", type text}}),
    #"Unpivoted Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Changed Type", {"Name"}, "Attribute", "Value"),
    #"Inserted First Characters" = Table.AddColumn(#"Unpivoted Columns", "First Characters", each Text.Start([Name], 1), type text),
    #"Inserted First Characters1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Inserted First Characters", "First Characters.1", each Text.Start([Name], 2), type text),
    #"Inserted First Characters2" = Table.AddColumn(#"Inserted First Characters1", "First Characters.2", each Text.Start([Name], 3), type text),
    #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Inserted First Characters2",{{"First Characters", "Level 1"}, {"First Characters.1", "Level 2"}, {"First Characters.2", "Level 3"}}),
    #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Renamed Columns",{"Name"}),
    #"Trimmed Text" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Removed Columns",{{"Level 2", Text.Trim}, {"Level 3", Text.Trim}}),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Trimmed Text", "Custom", each if [Level 2]=[Level 3] then 1 else 0),
    #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Added Custom", each ([Custom] = 0)),
    #"Renamed Columns1" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Filtered Rows",{{"Value", "Organization ID"}}),
    #"Removed Columns1" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Renamed Columns1",{"Attribute", "Custom"}),
    #"Reordered Columns" = Table.ReorderColumns(#"Removed Columns1",{"Level 1", "Level 2", "Level 3", "Organization ID"})
in
    #"Reordered Columns"
