Hello,

i have the source table:

Name

HotSummerInBerlin

and now using query:

let
Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content],
#"Unpivoted Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(Source, {}, "Attribute", "Value")
in
#"Unpivoted Columns"

How can i keep column from source table? 

The result should be:

Hi Jacek,

Add a custom column with this formula:

= Source

Expand the column to reveal the Name again.

Here is the code:

let
Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content],
#"Unpivoted Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(Source, {}, "Attribute", "Value"),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Unpivoted Columns", "Custom", each Source),
#"Expanded Custom" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Added Custom", "Custom", {"Name"}, {"Name"})
in
#"Expanded Custom"
