Hello,

I would like to tranpose my data into a new table format. I found a similar post here https://knowledge.safe.com/questions/88862/transposing-data-into-a-new-table.html

But I am not able to get the result I want. The main difference is that I have much more columns and rows than in the post I mentioned above.

The dataset I have:

DBKAlCl...10.151.1...20.201.2...30.251.3...............

With the 3 dots I want to indicate that it is a large amount of data. So much more columns and much more rows as well.

I would like to get the following format:

DBKParameterValue1Al0.151Cl1.11......2Al0.202Cl1.22......3Al0.253Cl1.33...............

 

So the three dots indicate that there are much more parameters for each DBK and there are also more DBK's.

In the post I mentioned above they use an AttributeExposer at the end. But I don't know how to use the AttributeExposer in my case because I cannot mannualy enter all the different values due to the large amount of data.

Does anyone have a solution for me ?

 

Thanks in advance,

Eva

You should be able to use an AttributeExploder for this, you will need to tidy up and remove some features and attributes afterwards

Thank you for your quick reply @ebygomm. The AttributeExploder indeed does the job :-)
