Hello All,
I have a column that is in HTML format. I would like to keep the column as HTML and display HTML in my report. But I have additional characters "&?". I want to remove this additional column from the HTML value.
I am trying this function to remove the additional characters -
(HTML as text) =>
let
Source = Text.From(HTML),
SplitAny = Text.SplitAny(Source,"amp;?"),
ListAlternate = List.Alternate(SplitAny,1,1,1),
ListSelect = List.Select(ListAlternate, each _<>"&"),
TextCombine = Text.Combine(ListSelect, " ")
in
TextCombine
I am using this function in my actual table
#"HTML Cleanup" = Table.AddColumn(#"Promoted Headers", "NewColumn", each
if [ExistingColumn] = null
then null
else #"HTML Cleaner"([ExistingColumn]))
The additional character is showing up in a link -
https://abc.com/a/sr/attach/rkm/3023/23378?server=xyz&?timestamp=1585154001466
Can you provide any help in modifying the query or any other suggestion of how can I achieve this?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Made following change in the script and it worked.
(HTML as text) =>
let
Source = Text.From(HTML),
SplitAny = Text.Split(Source,"amp;?"),
ListAlternate = List.Alternate(SplitAny,1,1,1),
ListSelect = List.Select(ListAlternate, each _<>"&"),
TextCombine = Text.Combine(ListSelect, " ")
in
TextCombine

@Anonymous hello I found the sample query in one of the posts. Would you be able to help me out?
Hi @Anonymous ,
Would you please try to use the following m-query?
(HTML as text) =>
let
Source = Text.From(HTML),
SplitAny = Text.SplitAny(Source,"<>"),
ListAlternate = List.Alternate(SplitAny,1,1,1),
ListSelect = List.Select(ListAlternate, each _<>""),
TextCombine = Text.Combine(ListSelect, "")
in
TextCombine
