Concatenate multiple columns into single column based on filters

Hi All,

 

I am trying to concatenate 3 columns into 1 based on some filters with DAX measure but not getting much success.

 

Criteria:

  • When a filter is selected i.e. “Program A”
    • Filter data on Type = "Project"
      • Concatenate the following columns:
        • “Id 2”, Update “Summary” and “Updated Type”
          • Ignoring any blank “Updated Type”.
        • H_insight_0-1665912112215.png

           

Expected outcome:

Many thanks

@H_insight Maybe:

Summary Measure = 
  VAR __Table = FILTER('Table',[Updated Type] <> BLANK())
RETURN
  CONCATENATEX(__Table, [Id 2] & ", " & [Update Summary] & ", " &  [Updated Type], UNICHAR(10))

Put this in a Card visual.

Colonne =
var testblank= ISBLANK(Data[Updated Type])
var result=if(testblank = FALSE,COMBINEVALUES(",",Data[id 2],Data[Updated Summary],Data[Updated Type]))

return
result

Thanks @Anonymous for looking into my query. Despite the calculated column showing the concatenated columns, it was not dynamic enough to deliver my table view. Thanks again.

Thanks @Greg_Deckler fro your help. I have used your measure with a minor tweak to fit my needs in a table:
