Hi tomshaw83 ,
You can group you data according hoe you want the index to filldown,
the before expanding the columns, add a column, Table.AddIndexColumn( [ColumnName], "IndexperCategory")
You can refer to the code below
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WSlSK1cFGJuEgk7GRsQA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Column1 = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Column1", type text}}), #"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Changed Type", "Index", 1, 1, Int64.Type), #"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Added Index", {"Column1"}, {{"Count", each _, type table [Column1=nullable text, Index=number]}}), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Grouped Rows", "Custom", each Table.AddIndexColumn([Count], "IndexperCategory", 1)), #"Expanded Custom" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Added Custom", "Custom", {"Index", "IndexperCategory"}, {"Index", "IndexperCategory"}) in #"Expanded Custom"Hope this helps!
