Hi all,
I am relatively new to power query and am trying to extract all the text between [] delimiters in a field, if they exist. See example below:
Input | Output |
[Apples] - 46 [Oranges] -1 | Apples, Oranges |
[Oranges] -1 | Oranges |
I need some fruit |
The problem I am running into is the delimeters between text in the ribbon is only returning one delimeter. I looked into this with this awesome thread, but I can't wrap my head around using "[" and "]" to begin and close the delimiters, respectively.
Thanks

Hi @shuhn1229,
This may help:
Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Calculated", each Text.Combine(List.Transform(List.Select(Text.Split([Input], "["), each Text.Contains(_, "]")), each Text.BeforeDelimiter(_, "]")), ", "))
Cheers,
John
