Failed to resolve name 'INDEX'. It is not a valid table, variable, or function name.

I'm using PowerBI Desktop Version: 2.88.2361.0 64-bit (January 2021) and need to acces a specific row in a column in it's absolute position.
After researching I found out DAX function INDEX would be the right choice for my task.
Unfortunately this function seems to be not implemented in the application:

 

When was this function implemented and how do I get my running version to work with this function?

    Nevermind, I found the answer myself:

    Function  Month          Description

    INDEX   December,2022Returns a row at an absolute position, specified by the position parameter, within the specified partition, sorted by the specified order or on the specified axis.
