Hey All,
Need help creating dax formula or calculated column to extract product density. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Need to go from left product column to right density group:

@asalazarjr , Power query Text between delimiter, skip 1 from beginning

Hi @asalazarjr
I would recommend extracting the string in Power Query instead, you can use BetweenDelimiters function:
= Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Density", each if Text.Contains([Product], "TB") = true then Text.BetweenDelimiters([Product], " "," ", 3,0) else if Text.Contains([Product], "Gbit") = true then Text.BetweenDelimiters([Product], " "," ",1,0) else "")
This is based on the sample data that you have.
Hope this helps!
