Hello,
I am extracting a dataset from a php link.
After splitting by delimiter i get one line with all data
after unpivoting i end with these columns
The values on column 1 (Attribute) do not have a clear name and i can't use them to pivot the values on column 2 (Value).
Is there another way to pivot column 2?

Hi @Mr_Indy ,
please add an additional step to your query with the following formula:
Table.FromRows( List.Split( #"Name of your previous step here"[Value], 12 ) )
Or paste the following code into the advanced editor and follow the steps:
let
Source = Table.FromRows(
Json.Document(
Binary.Decompress(
Binary.FromText("i45WMtQzUtJRMtQ1UorVAfFMwDwTKM8IxDWCSxqZgblA2VgA", BinaryEncoding.Base64),
Compression.Deflate
)
),
let
_t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true])
in
type table [Attribute = _t, Value = _t]
),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source, {{"Attribute", type number}, {"Value", type text}}),
Custom1 = Table.FromRows(List.Split(#"Changed Type"[Value], 2))
in
Custom1

Correct @Mr_Indy ,
that's how it works.

Thank you @ImkeF ! So the logic is to create a table based on the number of rows and since i have 12 rows for each record it's looping on these values.
