I have a text file(.txt) with about 1,600 lines, the format is as follows


slmonname
23288GDIA-Alteryx - Prod Controller server123abc Memory
slstatusmessage
36% virtual memory used, 46474MB virtual memory free, 45.3296 pagessec/
sltime
08:01:02
sldate
0511/2020/

This is repeated about 200 times, my question is , what methods can i use to get this out to a table format, my headings would be
slmonname, slstatusmessage,sltime,sldate

Any creative ideas ?

If this solves your issue please mark the answer as correct, if not let me know! I've attached my workflow for you to download if needed.
