Hi @Anonymous ,

Like this?

Advance editor:

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WSkxU0lEyNAQSRgZGxrqGuoZKsTrRSklJIBEjdOHkZKCIsTGKcCwA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Column1 = _t, Column2 = _t, Column3 = _t]),
    #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(Source,{{"Column3", Text.From(List.Max(Source[Column3]))}})
in
    #"Renamed Columns"

Can't you just select Table.PomoteHeaders?

I could, but it will promote just the first row, I would like to promote only specific columns not all the columns

Hi @Anonymous 

Please manually change the column header
or you are looking for dynamic name

Yes! See this particular report it used to be in Excel, so with c# we defined the date as header of the excel then we would umpivot. Now we are getting it with SP in sql server and then we cannot define the name of the fields dynamically. I want to set the value in the row as the header name in power bi
