    You may return filtered table by Power Query or as dynamic array using FILTER() function like

    =FILTER(Table, COUNTIF(Table[Category],List1))

        Could you please provide sample file removing all sensitive and unnecessary information? It will be much easier to demonstrate formula on it.
