Multi-Row Formula help

Hey everyone!

 

I am currently working with API data that we are calling and am having difficulties with getting the Multi-Row Formula tool to do what I need. To be honest, it might not even be the right tool for this particular problem, but had worked until this point. In the API data I have a column 'Name' that contains custom_attribute_term and custom_attribute_value. I need to be able to transpose the data out to where the custom_attribute_term is the column name and custom_attribute_value are the values for the column. With that I have been trying to create a new column that basically takes the term and lines it up with its corresponding value. Please see the screenshot for more sample data details about where I am and where I need to be. Thanks for the help!

try this 

 

if contains([name],"term") then [value] else [term:row-1] endif

 

and then another formula tool with if contains([name],"term") then null() else [term] endif
