Hi,
I have 2 queries:
1. a [connection only] which is generating a parameter within Power Query from a referrence from within the spreadsheet itself - a list (single column) of numbers as text or integer. let's say this parameter is called "IDlist".
2. a [Web API call] using the = Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://somewebapi.com/" & IDlist)) function. The intent here is to have the IDlist resolve to a string as "34,35,36,37,38,39,40"
I've searched the web for a solution but none have turned up yet.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Metran
You can put the following code to advanced editor in power query
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMlSK1YlWMgKTxmDSBEyagkkzMGkOJi3ApKVSbCwA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [ID = _t]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"ID", type text}}),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Custom", each Text.Combine(#"Changed Type"[ID],","))
in
#"Added Custom"
Output
Best Regards!

Hi,
= """"& Text.Combine(List.Transform(Source[ID], Text.From), ",") & """"
