Query M code adding Custom Column with conditions 'Contains'

Hi,


Please help,

 

I would like to add custom column that


1. if 'Attribute' does NOT contains "_2" then just copy the first 4 letter from "Source.Name" which says the year of the cell 

2. if 'Attribute' does contains number "_2" then plus 1 onto  the first 4 letter from "Source.Name".

 

e.g.

Row1~10 new custom column should be 2023

Row11~20 should be 2024(2023+1) because its values of "Attribute" contains "_2"

@jeongkim , Use this in custom column

 

m
= if Text.Contains([Attribute], "_2") then
Text.From(Number.FromText(Text.Start([Source.Name], 4)) + 1)
else
Text.Start([Source.Name], 4)
