Hi,
Using PowerBI to get some data.
The data has fields:

-----
Fieldname: Source
Value: Exterior
-----
Fieldname: Exterior.01.DefectNumber
Value: 1
-----
Fieldname: Exterior.01.FormattedCost
Value: 44
------
Fieldname: Exterior.02.DefectNumber
Value: 2
-----
Fieldname: Exterior.02.FormattedCost
Value: 88

I want to get this data and put into a PowerBI table view:

Defect# Cost
-----------------
1 44
2 88
etc...

How do I do this please? I think I need a DAX query.

Thanks!

How can you automate Excel?
Press Alt+F11 from Windows Excel to open the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) editor.
For a bit more info, I need to transpose the data into PowerBI - i.e. flat data in the SQL table --> PowerBI.

Here is an example from the table (copy/paste) to give you guys an idea of the format:
