IF calculation where IF dimension contains Text then Text (with ELSEIF conditions)

Hello!

 

I’m a Tableau user switching over to Power BI/DAX. I’m trying to replicate a Tableau calculation I had but having trouble figuring out the best approach in Power BI/Query. I am looking for an IF Contains THEN formula for multiple instances...

 

Here is the calculation in Tableau:

 

IF CONTAINS ([Campaign Name], “XYZ”) Then “XYZ Campaign”
ELSEIF CONTAINS ([Campaign Name], “ABC”) Then “ABC Campaign”

ELSEIF CONTAINS ([Campaign Name], “JKL”) Then “JKL Campaign”
END

 

 

Thanks!

CONTAINS ([Campaign Name], “ABC”) ,“ABC Campaign”
CONTAINS ([Campaign Name], “JKL”) ,“JKL Campaign”
"ELSE"
)
