@eliasayyy 

What exactly are you trying to extract? Please provide some examples 

Hello @tamerj1 , as yoi can see from first picture, the person was able to extract "no fongerprint scanner"

"Battery life isnt good" 

 

All from the review_text column . Given reviews arent written qll the same and some people might make grammar mistakes or write it differently for example someone writes "bad battery life" or someone else wrotes " "battery life isnt good" or someone saying "the battery can be better" all should fall under 1 category which is "bad battery life"

@eliasayyy 

If you have a table of all these categories then we can use dax to return the best match (and no less than a certain limit let's say 50% or 60% match) 

however, this won't be easy and is extremely heavy calculation. 

@tamerj1 oh can you please provide with some of them or a page to refer to to learn it? It would be much appreciated for this will help me in future projects
