Ola It seems you need an additional column like in the picture (I've named it Idea Number) and then it works :smileyhappy:

There is a Pivot transformation in Power Query, see the steps below
Raw DataSelect Pivot Transform
select the column that contains the headers to pivot
-> select Pivot transform from transform ribbon
-> select advanced and choose no aggregation
