Select Column as index

Hello,

 

I have a table that already have an index column. I want to keep it this way. How can i do it?

(I want it to be like like on padas .

 

df = pd.read_csv("file.csv, index_col= ["index"])

 

)

Example table:

IndexABCDE
112311241xdasdasda
223121241xdsadasda
3412411241xdasdsaa

 

Hope anyone could give me a hand thanks!!

hello you forgot to add calculate in the start before the (MAX

Measure = CALCULATE( MAX(Promedios[PS1]) , FILTER(Promedios, [Índice] = MAX(Promedios[Índice])))

Some background about what i'm tryng to do.

 

I'm trying to get the last value from a colum using this DAX

LastPS1 = LASTNONBLANK(Promedios[PS1], Promedios[PS1])

The problem is when i use this code i got the MAX value instead the LAST value. I think it is because power BI its not getting the index i set

Last Value = 

Calculate ( MAX(Promedios[PS1]) , FILTER(Table, [index] = max[index]))

this should return your latest value

here is a small sample

I'm having an issue with the code:

LastPS1 = ( MAX(Promedios[PS1]) , FILTER(Promedios, [Índice] = MAX(Promedios[Índice])))

The error is The '( )' operator or expression is not supported in this context. 

Thanks for your time @eliasayyy !
