I loaded data from Azure log analytics dataset in PowerBi. The data in the table is something like this:
table - Log Analytics
| Host | Server_Principal | ApplicationName | Text |
| Host A | user_1 | Mashup Engine | Select * from DIM.Section |
| Host A | user_1 | Microsoft Office | Select top 10 * from DIM.Section |
| Host B | user_3 | Python | Select top 30 * from DIM.AssetLocation |
Then loaded all table names from the database that log analytics monitors in to Objects table:
table - Objects
Schema,Object
DIM,Action
DIM,AssetLocation
DIM,AssetStatus
DIM,BaseCode
DIM,RequestType
Object column turned in to slicer (with single selection).
What I am trying to do is to use slicer to find, show and calculate all records in Log Analytics table where selected table (for instance AssetLocation). Calculation works fine:
I can also find records and display by adding calculated column and then adding it to the visual (IsFound is True)
Thank you, @YukiK
I solved it by adding the crossjoin table on Objects[Object] and Log Analytics[Text] columns, then in Power Query used Text.Contains to generate a filter column, remove rows with where condition was not met and dropped the filter. Ended up with relatively small table that I added a couple of calculated columns and it did the trick.
In Power Query (or M) it works faster compared to DAX.
@pgolbiAwesome! Great to hear! Did my suggestion help (if so, please give it a thumbs up 🙂)?
Have you tried to add IsFound as a filter? That way, you won't have to include IsFound to the visual.
