Here's how I would do it - unpivot all columns except name then tidy up (important steps in red):
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WSlTSUfIwNDI2MQUxTEzNzC2ADKVYnWilJLAICIBEoILJIEFTEAAxzEAAxDAHAbCCFBDXAgRgumIB", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [name = _t, des = _t, #"1" = _t, #"2" = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"name", type text}, {"des", type text}, {"1", type text}, {"2", type text}}), UnpivotAllExceptName = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Changed Type", {"name"}, "Attribute", "Value"), RenameToDes = Table.RenameColumns(UnpivotAllExceptName,{{"Value", "des"}}), RemoveAttribute = Table.RemoveColumns(RenameToDes,{"Attribute"}), RemoveBlankDes = Table.SelectRows(RemoveAttribute, each ([des] <> "" and [des] <> null)) in RemoveBlankDesRegards,
