Hi , Ju7438
For your need , i can be realized in Power Query Editor.
You can put this M code in "Advanced Editor" to refer to :
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WctR30ndWitUBsgz1HY30HY31HU2UYmMB", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Context = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Context", type text}}), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Custom", (x)=>Text.Split(x[Context],"/") ), #"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom", "Custom2", (x)=> Table.AddColumn(Table.FromColumns({{0..List.Count(x[Custom])-1}}),"test",(y)=> Text.Combine(List.Range(x[Custom],0,y[Column1]),"/") )[test] ), Custom1 = Table.FromColumns({List.Combine(#"Added Custom1"[Custom]) , List.Combine(#"Added Custom1"[Custom2])}) in Custom1Then we can meet your need:
Thank you for your time and sharing, and thank you for your support and understanding of PowerBI!
