Hi BatTodor,
We can use Table.TransformColumns to meet your requirement.
#"Table.TransformColumns"=Table.TransformColumns(previsoustep, {"ID", each if _ is number then "null" else _})
Here is the result for your reference.
The M code in power query is like this.
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMlTSgeJYnWglIyjPGMwzhvJMwTwTKM8IzDOF8kzAPDMUleYopligqLREsc/QAGFoLAA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [ID = _t, Group = _t, Class = _t]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"ID", Int64.Type}, {"Group", Int64.Type}, {"Class", Int64.Type}}),
#"Table.TransformColumns"=Table.TransformColumns(#"Changed Type", {"ID", each if _ is number then "null" else _})
in
#"Table.TransformColumns"For more details, please check the pbix as attached.
