Dynamic groupby calculation

Hi everybody,

 

I am working on a dataset with the following columns, used to log visits to a website:

  • person_id
  • visit_id
  • visit_datetime

What I am looking for is to visuallize how many people did visit the website one, two, three times (etc) during a period of time defined by a slicer.

 

I was able to generate a calculated table with the following formula, but the output I get is from the entire dataset, not the selected period of time.

 

aux_frequency = SUMMARIZE(visits,visits[person_id],"visit_count",COUNT(visits[visit_id]))

Any help will be deeply appreciated. Thanks!

        kdewald Thanks for posting sample data.

         

        I've tried below to solve your scenario...

         

        Created a table with single column from the visit_id values (distinct values) as below

         

        VisitsFilter = DISTINCT(VisitCount[visit_id])

        Create a relationship between main source table (In my case it is VisitCount) with the VisitsFilter that was created above with visit_id field.

         

        use visit_id from VisitsFilter as slicer and use source table data for visualizing the data.

         

         

        Hope this is what you are looking for...

    hi, kdewald

         You just need to add a measure as below:

    visit_count = COUNT(visits[visit_id])

    and then drag field person_id and this measure into table visual, then drag field visit_datetime into slicer to dynamic group by

     

    Result:

     

    Best Regards,
