I am trying to create a DAX Measure in my Fabric Power BI Model. I want to use this column to build a url from the id column so I can use it to conditionally format the id in a report table as a url. I can't figure out how to reference the id column correctly. I know you can use SUM to reference other column types, but my id column is a string and SUM wont work.
link = "https://xxxxxx.lightning.force.com/lightning/r/OrderSummary/" & SELECTEDVALUE(salesforce_order_summary[id]) & "/view"
The above just results in: https://xxxxxx.lightning.force.com/lightning/r/OrderSummary//view

SELECTEDVALUE returns BLANK if it doesn't find exactly one value. Evaluate why you have multiple values selected, and consider using an aggregate like MIN or MAX if applicable.

Does MIN/MAX work with a string? I did figure out what was wrong, I had a type in the column name.
yes, MIN/MAX works with strings
