    let
        Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("hc8xCoAwDAXQu3S21/AILtIhpSEWalNCtHh7wQoOVtx+eMmHzLMZZYtqrRkMlJLwSsQpYDZu6LNg+DQSfF2yQKbGB6bE9dtbvHxCQgV/98LmUSjmNmXYj9+lukTtVSmvoPx84k4=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Type = _t, Produt = _t, Colour = _t]),
        #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Type", type text}, {"Produt", type text}, {"Colour", type text}}),
        #"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Changed Type", {"Type", "Produt"}, {{"Colours", each _, type table [Type=nullable text, Produt=nullable text, Colour=nullable text]}}),
        #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Grouped Rows", "Custom", each Lines.ToText(Table.ToList(Table.SelectColumns([Colours], "Colour")),"/"))

  • Thanks dude, it worked.  Happy new year.

    just there is a spelling mistake in last "Produt" - it has to be "Product". I tell it for others to correct the spelling.
