Did it work?
Hi Anonymous
Try this. I think it will do the job but will be slow.
Please see attached file as well with your sample data
First create a new table using >>New Sourec>>Blank Query.
Call it Modifiers
This will be used to do modifications
let
Custom1 = {"A".."Z"},
Custom2 = List.Transform(Custom1,each " "&_),
Table1=Table.FromColumns({Custom1,Custom2},{"Current","Replacement"}),
Custom3=Table.AddColumn(Table.FromList({0..9}, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error), "Index",each 1),
Custom4=Table.AddColumn(Table.FromList({"a".."z"}, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error), "Index",each 1),
Custom5 = Table.NestedJoin(Custom4,{"Index"},Custom3,{"Index"},"Table1",JoinKind.LeftOuter),
#"Expanded Table1" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(Custom5, "Table1", {"Column1"}, {"Column1.1"}),
#"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Expanded Table1",{"Index"}),
#"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Removed Columns",{{"Column1", "Alphabets"}, {"Column1.1", "Numbers"}}),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Renamed Columns", "Replacement", each [Alphabets]&" "&Text.From([Numbers])),
Table2 = Table.CombineColumns(Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Added Custom", {{"Numbers", type text}}, "en-US"),{"Alphabets", "Numbers"},Combiner.CombineTextByDelimiter("", QuoteStyle.None),"Current"),
Custom6 = Table.Combine({Table1,Table2})
in
Custom6
Now in your original table we can use
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMlfSUTIBYgsgNlWK1YlWMoKKmAGxOVjEECpvaAAkLMFCMC3GYBwbCwA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [IfAnAdultWasTheAdultDeterminedLowIncome = _t, WasDocumentationInTheCaseFileThatParticipantWas18Years = _t, ILovePowerBi = _t, ILoveExcelToo2 = _t]),
#"Demoted Headers" = Table.DemoteHeaders(Source),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Demoted Headers",{{"Column1", type any}, {"Column2", type any}, {"Column3", type any}, {"Column4", type any}}),
TT = Table.Transpose(#"Changed Type"),
Final=List.Last(List.Generate(
()=>[x=0,y=Table.ReplaceValue(TT,Modifiers[Current]{x},Modifiers[Replacement]{x},Replacer.ReplaceText,{"Column1"}),z=[y]],
each [x]<Table.RowCount(Modifiers),
each [x=[x]+1,y=Table.ReplaceValue(z,Modifiers[Current]{x},Modifiers[Replacement]{x},Replacer.ReplaceText,{"Column1"}),z=[y]],
each [y])),
TransposedTable = Table.Transpose(Final),
PromotedHeaders = Table.PromoteHeaders(TransposedTable, [PromoteAllScalars=true])
in
PromotedHeaders
Hello Zubair_Muhammad,
Thanks for the help! I am faily new in the powerBi world and I am not exacly sure how to apply this method with my current data connection.
Here is what I have:
let
Source = SharePoint.Tables("https://mytenant.sharepoint.com/sites/sitecollection/", [ApiVersion = 14]),
WIOA = Source{[Name="WIOA"]}[Content],
