DAX with conditional formatting
Hi, I am using Power Automate Flow and filter column from Power BI report using 'Run a query against a dataset' and the Query Text is using SUMMARIZECOLUMNS. Example:
SUMMARIZECOLUMNS(
'table'[column1],
'table'[column2],
'table'[column3],
)
Column3 value is in percentage, somehow, I need to make font color in [column3] red if the value below 75% and black if the value above 75%. it is possible to do it in Power BI Desktop (create measure and used it as conditional formatting > font color > using Field Value format style and so on). But, is there a way to do it in DAX query?
Thank you.

Hi!
You can use color as a separate column or just color like value in measures

Hi Azhar80
If you want to set the font color , you always have to use conditional formatting. I created a sample , you can refer to it .
Create a measure like this :
Measure = SWITCH(TRUE(),SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Column1])<0.75, "#DB271C")I have attached my pbix file .

Anyway, thanks for your help.
Hi Azhar80
Unfortunately, your need to set font color through automation cannot be achieved directly through DAX. You can post your thoughts on the Ideas forum . If a feedback is high voted there by other customers, it will be promising that Microsoft Product Team will take it into consideration when designing the next version in the future.
