I wish to have an index of 1,2,3,4 etc into row of type table. So each table in each row gets its own index
I think its something like this
Table.AddIndexColumn( [SortSubTable], "Rank", 1,1)
But how would that look exactly within advanced editor?
Solved! Go to Solution.
What matters is your previous step and All Data. Your step in AE would become
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Your previous step", "Custom", each Table.AddIndexColumn([All Data], "Rank", 1,1))
Better to insert a custom column and put following formula there which will take care of your previous step as well
= Table.AddIndexColumn([All Data], "Rank", 1,1)
Better to insert a custom column and put this formula there. This would like following in AE
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Your previous step", "Custom", each Table.AddIndexColumn([SortSubTable], "Rank", 1,1))
What refers to the column of type Table in your example? In my data I call my tables "CatChanges" and the Table column within it is called "All Data".
What matters is your previous step and All Data. Your step in AE would become
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Your previous step", "Custom", each Table.AddIndexColumn([All Data], "Rank", 1,1))

= Table.AddIndexColumn([All Data], "Rank", 1,1)
You need to put the column to be ranked on in the first column bizzarely also or it wont sort in the correct order.
