Using Power Query / Advanced Editor

Umadhandapani_0-1643277165913.png

Hi,

This is my JSON data, I need to transform the data using Power Query in the following format.

 

NameDateAmount
AA2022-1-24100
BB2022-1-24200

You have to put additional columns in to 'group' the records.  As a human you can look at that data as it is and see patterns but power query can't so here's the algorithm:

1. Add an index column (from the interface)

2. Add a custom column using Number.IntegerDivide , Index and 2 to make a column which 'groups' the data.

3. Remove the Index column (from step 1)

4. Pivot the fields.fieldname column with fieldvalue as values using Don't aggregate

 

Let me know how it goes

@Umadhandapani , Have you tried pivot after selecting the two columns. Use max as operation

If this does not help
Can you share sample data and sample output in table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.
