    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    You should just be able to filter your name column, something like this:

    Table.SelectRows(previousStepName, each Text.StartsWith([Name], "Data "))

    Then expand the [Data] column using the button at the top right that looks like two arrows bending away from each other.
