In Power BI, you can use split by a delimiter to split a string based on a particular delimiter as the following:

  1. Click on "Edit Queries" to access the Power Query Editor.
  2. Right-click on the header of the column > Select split column - By delimiter
    Power BI split column - By delimiter

  3. Select space delimiter > choose each occurrence of the delimiter > click OK

If you don’t ask, the answer is always NO!
