    Not seeing an issue here

     

    Query:

    let
    Source = Folder.Files("C:\Users\xxx\Downloads"),
    #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(Source, each ([Extension] = ".json")),
    #"Filtered Rows1" = Table.SelectRows(#"Filtered Rows", each Text.StartsWith([Name], "sample")),
    #"Removed Other Columns" = Table.SelectColumns(#"Filtered Rows1",{"Content", "Name"}),
    #"Invoked Custom Function" = Table.AddColumn(#"Removed Other Columns", "parsejson", each parsejson([Content])),

in
    #"Expanded parsejson"

    parsejson:

    (file)=> let
    Source = Json.Document(file),
    #"Converted to Table" = Table.FromList(Source, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
    #"Expanded Column1" = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(#"Converted to Table", "Column1", {"deviceId", "deviceName", "locationId", "locationName", "time", "text", "component", "componentLabel", "capability", "attribute", "value", "unit", "data", "translatedAttributeName", "translatedAttributeValue", "epoch", "hash"}, {"deviceId", "deviceName", "locationId", "locationName", "time", "text", "component", "componentLabel", "capability", "attribute", "value", "unit", "data", "translatedAttributeName", "translatedAttributeValue", "epoch", "hash"}),
    #"Expanded data" = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(#"Expanded Column1", "data", {}, {}),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Expanded data",{{"deviceId", type text}, {"deviceName", type text}, {"locationId", type text}, {"locationName", type text}, {"time", type datetime}, {"text", type text}, {"component", type text}, {"componentLabel", type text}, {"capability", type text}, {"attribute", type text}, {"value", type number}, {"unit", type text}, {"translatedAttributeName", type text}, {"translatedAttributeValue", type number}, {"epoch", Int64.Type}, {"hash", Int64.Type}})
