Hello,
I'm loading XML data from a legacy SOAP WS (great post here on how to get it).
Some of the tags are empty and the Get Data interprets it as [Table] array.
I need to get rid of the [Table] values, turn to 0 or blank.
I've tried all kind of Table.ReplaceValue and can't get it to work.
Below an output example of the XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <ROOT> <result> <CARDS> <CARD> <FIELDS> <F_N>Mike</F_N> <P_N>Last</P_N> <TID>1111111111</TID> <ACTIVE_WORKER>1</ACTIVE_WORKER> <MAIL>something@something.com</MAIL> <CELL>222222222</CELL> <USER_ROLE>master</USER_ROLE> <LIMITED_PERMISSION></LIMITED_PERMISSION> </FIELDS> </CARD> </CARDS> </result> </ROOT>
[First question in this amazing forum I've been following and learning from for years .... ]

Excellent, exactely what I was looking for.
Is there a way to do it once for all columns or simply repeat the columns like this
#"Expandcolumn"= Table.TransformColumns(#"Removed Columns", {{"LIMITED_PERMISSION", each if Value.Is(_, type table) then 0 else _ },{"USER_ROLE", each if Value.Is(_, type table) then "" else _ }} ),
@danielsaf,
Please repeat this step for all the columns that you need to expand.

Lydia
