Move Column Items to New Column and Value

I'm trying to figure out how to move the below data into custom rows and values.  the data comes in this format:

 

"deviceId": "cd489ed6-111a-46c7-bd31-ce1a91d7efcd",
"deviceName": "Aeotec Switch",
"locationId": "31cb9eb0-74fd-4471-a51b-37e1ec3f969b",
"locationName": "Road",
"time": "2022-12-02T00:53:29.000+00:00",
"text": "Energy consumption of Aeotec Switch is 12.46",
"component": "main",
"componentLabel": "main",
"capability": "energyMeter",
"attribute": "energy",
"value": 12.46,
"unit": "kWh",
"data": {},
"translatedAttributeName": "Energy consumption",
"translatedAttributeValue": "12.46",
"epoch": 1669942409374,
"hash": 3653307885

 

Try to move those into the following format

Table.PromoteHeaders(Table.Transpose(#table(2,List.Transform(List.RemoveItems(Text.SplitAny(YourText,"#(lf),"),{"#(cr)"}),each Splitter.SplitTextByDelimiter(": ")(_)))))

Only for the sample data you provided, it may need to be adjusted when applied to the actual data

 

thanks @wdx223_Daniel  I should have posted the complete data set, its not working for me, raw format below.
