Hi Everyone,
I'm trying to get the values of a date slicer using SELECTEDVALUE. Does anyone know how I can go about this especially for relative dates selection (see below).
Essentially i would like to control the selection so for example when a user switches the Year drop down to Day/Week/Month I should get different results.
Is this possible using dax?
Appreciate your Help!

Hi @Anonymous ,
I have created a simple sample, please refer to it to see if it helps you.
Create a measure first.
Measure = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[date])
Measure cannot be displayed separately in the visuals. So we can create a column.
Column = [Measure]
If I have misunderstood your meaning, please provide your desired output with more details and you sample pbix file without privacy information.

Hi @Anonymous is there a way you can select the items on the left side selection box with Last, Next and This? I would like to have my users only view the "This" category and the others to not be seen when you selct that box.
Best,
Marlon
