This is a manually added reference table that is packed up to save space.  You can represent it simpler by using the #table syntax if you want.

#table({"ID","Company","Origin","Destiny"},
{{"4","AA","Barcelona","Valencia"},
{"5","AA","Valencia","Barcelona"},
{"6","AA","Madrid","Roma"},
{"7","AA","Roma","Madrid"},
{"8","AA","Barcelona","Madrid"},
{"9","AA","Madrid","Barcelona"},
{"10","AB","Barcelona","Valencia"},
{"11","AB","Valencia","Barcelona"},
{"12","AC","Madrid","Roma"},
{"13","AC","Roma","Madrid"},
{"14","AC","Barcelona","Roma"},
{"15","AC","Roma","Barcelona"}}
)

This is unrelated to Sharepoint.

Hi, is this written manually or can it be generated through actions and applied steps...I am having a similar issue where I am trying to generate this source.

I have a query that is written:

= Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WckpNLEpRitWJVnLJTy4NzkzPA3OCE3NSi9Pyi5JTFXwTi7JTSzLz0hWcc/JLU9ClwUyIlIKugnN+bm5pXmZJpUJAYlFJXmpRMX71QW6OCo6lJfm5iSWZ+ehW6wanFpVlAmkkiwMUQlITc5ViYwE=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Team = _t])

Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMlHSUXJ0BBJOiUXJqTn5eYlAdlhiTmpecmaiUqxOtJIpTAVcFFkxSIUZTIVvYkpRZgqQEZSfC5Eyh0mBReAqQFIW2GxGkrfEMBXVVkMDkAInfE43NIQpwel2QyOQEmesjjc0hslhut7QBCaHbDtCqymaViRbYwE=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [ID = _t, Company = _t, Origin = _t, Destiny = _t]),

 

Same process. Run it through a Base64 decoder and unzip it.

 

[["4","AA","Barcelona","Valencia"],["5","AA","Valencia","Barcelona"],["6","AA","Madrid","Roma"],["7","AA","Roma","Madrid"],["8","AA","Barcelona","Madrid"],["9","AA","Madrid","Barcelona"],["10","AB","Barcelona","Valencia"],["11","AB","Valencia","Barcelona"],["12","AC","Madrid","Roma"],["13","AC","Roma","Madrid"],["14","AC","Barcelona","Roma"],["15","AC","Roma","Barcelona"]]

Then parse it with the JSON parser.

 

Again, this is only to save some space. There is no other purpose.
