Hi, I have an input data of the form as shown in screenshot-I essentially want to get the data on the same level and keep the original columns. Attaching input and expected output. Is there any dynamic way for doing this ?

Hey @Shaina1,

there are a few ways to do this. One way is just to separate out the columns and filter away the empty rows and join on record position:

Hey-thanks for this ! Actually my dataset is extremely large-so I would have to repeat this process across multiple columns and processes which might be a bit cumbersome. But thanks a lot for replying on my post.
