Filter To specific Text in summarize

How can i summarize a table column that contains text that i want to filter out?

example

Name
A
B
C
D

 

So i want to summarize to only show A and B 

  • Hi Anonymous,

     

    Instead of using just the table name in the first parameter of Summarize, you can use a filtered table like:

     

    New Table = SUMMARIZE(FILTER('Table','Table'[Name]="A" || 'Table'[Name]="B"),'Table'[Name],"Sum",SUM('Table'[Value]))

     

    Works for you? Mark this post as a solution if it does!
