Transpose columns to rows in a bulk import from excel (model driven app)

Hello,

I need some help with a problem that I didn’t met before.

I have this scenario:
I need to bulk import an excel file into a table Budget (in model driven app) like:

I want to create a flow that can transpose ONLY the headers with Something1 etc. into a table called Product Category, with the column called Category like: 

boarder_1-1685523901715.png

When I am doing the import I have the possibility to add a new column in Budget table like "Something5". I need to check in Product Category if there is "Something5" and if is not, to add it there. 
Example:

My idea is to check, every time when an import is on process if there is a modification in the number of columns like: Column 1 will be always Location and the last 2 will be always Month and Year so I will COUNT only from 1 to -2 (from all the columns)

I need all steps please, I am new to power automate and already scared of it.

    @boarder - I do not think Power Automate is needed here. I suggest learning about the out of the box Power Query functionality in Dataverse (called DataFlows) to achieve what you need.
