Hi Anonymous
You can use Uri.Parts to decode a Uri part. There is an example in the previous link.
You can convert above code to create a custom function like below and name it as UriUnescapeDataString. Create a blank query and open its Advanced Editor. Paste the following code there.
(data as text) as text => let DecodedText = Uri.Parts("http://contoso?a=" & data)[Query][a] in DecodedTextThen invoke this custom function in other queries just like using built-in functions.
