Pivot table with multiple values

Hello,

 

I need to convert this table:

question_textanswerid_event
ABCOPL1
GHIUIL1
DEFLLK1

 

Into:

id_eventABCGHIDEF
1OPLUILLLK

 

I have tried:

 

 Table.Pivot(#"Previous Step", List.Distinct(#"Previous Step"[question_text]), "question_text", "answer")

 

 

But this is returning the error:

 

Expression.Error: There are too many elements in the enumeration to conclude the operation.
Details:
[List]

Hi @webportal 

It's working for me:

= Table.Pivot(#"Encabezados promovidos", List.Distinct(#"Encabezados promovidos"[question_text]), "question_text", "answer")

 

 

 

I have put this:

The error will drop if your resulting table contains duplicated column names. Some topics treat it: https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Power-Query/There-were-too-many-elements-in-the-enumeratio...
