    Hi Anonymous ,

    Is the number of values corresponding to each id the same? If it is the same, you can try the following M code, the "Source" is in my query and starting with "Changed Type", is in yours:

    let    
        Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WSlTSUTJUitWBsIzQWEnorFgA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [name = _t, id = _t]),    
        #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"name", type text}, {"id", type text}}),
        #"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Changed Type", {"name"}, {{"Count", each _[id], type list}}),
        InsertAndZip = List.Zip(Table.AddColumn(#"Grouped Rows", "Custom", each List.InsertRange(_[Count],0,{[name]}))[Custom]),
        #"Converted to Table" = Table.FromList(InsertAndZip, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
        #"Extracted Values" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Converted to Table", {"Column1", each Text.Combine(List.Transform(_, Text.From), ","), type text}),
        #"Split Column by Delimiter" = Table.SplitColumn(#"Extracted Values", "Column1", Splitter.SplitTextByDelimiter(",", QuoteStyle.Csv), {"Column1.1", "Column1.2"}),   
        #"Promoted Headers" = Table.PromoteHeaders(#"Split Column by Delimiter", [PromoteAllScalars=true]),
        #"Changed Type2" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Promoted Headers",{{"a", Int64.Type}, {"b", Int64.Type}})
    in
        #"Changed Type2"

    Here is a demo, please try it:
