Combine 2 columns and group values into one column

Hello!

 

Beginner user, not sure if this question has already been answered. I am looking to combine 2 columns to get a single column, but with single grouped value of column 1 repeated only once.

 

For example:

 

Input:

ashishshetty_0-1602878352984.png

Output:

ashishshetty_1-1602878376219.png

Attached is a sample excel input.

 

Appreciate the help! Thank you!

I'd suggest:

Start by using a summarise tool to concatenate all the values in Column2 to a single string for each Column1 separated by columns

Then you can use a formula tool to add Column1 value in front of the concatenated values

Finally a text to columns tool will break it up into the rows you need.
