I have data with Plants and Assets. I need to transform so i have data in each row and not multiple assets separated by commas in each row. How do I do this in Domo?

    1. split asset column by delimiter comma. use 10 splits to be safe, since there is not an option to use as many splits as needed.
    2. unpivot the columns you created with the splits. This will turn the columns into rows, repeating the non-pivoted columns "Plant" and "Shutdown Reason" for each new row.

    Here's a video on how to split values dynamically when you don't know how many times you will have to split.
