Hy,
I got a blackbox file with on a record the failure start datetimestamp (TRUE) en on a other record de failure end datetimestamp.(FALSE). De first failure has a duration of 3 seconds.
How can i calculate the duration for each failure on the locations (Locatie) ?
Thank you.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Sure! try this:
SUMMARIZE (
ADDCOLUMNS('Table', "Date", LEFT(CONVERT('Table'[Timestamp],STRING),10)),
'Table'[Location],[Date],
"Duration",
DATEDIFF(CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Table'[Timestamp] ), 'Table'[Failure] = TRUE() )
, CALCULATE ( MIN ( 'Table'[Timestamp] ), 'Table'[Failure] = FALSE() ), SECOND)
)
I changed the duration calculation to use DATEDIFF function instead, in case you're expecting the failure to last longer than a minute.
If you need to format that, there's a good article that talks about it here:

Thanks you Jewel.
This is the view i was looking for.
Thank you, I have a summarize per location.
I only changed the Minute in Seconds.

You can try to create a table with DAX like this:
CalculatedTable =
SUMMARIZE (
'Table',
'Table'[Location],
"Duration",
MINUTE (
CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Table'[Timestamp] ), 'Table'[Failure] = FALSE () )
- CALCULATE ( MIN ( 'Table'[Timestamp] ), 'Table'[Failure] = TRUE () )
)
)
Hope this helps!
Jewel
Thank you,
Is it also prissible to summarixe per date ?
Regards René
