Hi Just2431 ,
Depending on the information you provided, you can follow these steps below:
In Power Bi Desktop1.Add new measure.
Current Month = "Data for " & FORMAT(MAX('Table'[DATE]), "MMMM")2.Go to the visual object whose title you want to change dynamically. Click the fx button next to the title text box, select Format as Field Value, and then select the metric you created ().
Fianl output:
Re-upload the pbix to Power Bi Service. whenever the data is refreshed the metrics are updated with the latest month in the dataset and the captions of the visual objects are also updated.
For a more detailed guide to creating dynamic captions, you can also refer to the following document:
