Using IN operator for checking in a column

Hi,

I've seen that it is possible to use the "IN" operator in this manner:

Products[Color] IN { "Red", "Black" }

Now, for a my pbix I'd like to use a similar logic:

Products[Color] IN Colors[Color]

like a SQL query, but it seems that it isn't possible, right?

Any suggests for me, please? Thanks

Hey @Anonymous ,

 

instead of Products[Color] IN { "Red", "Black" } you can also write:

TREATAS ( { "Red", "Black" }, Products[Color] )

 

Similar you can use the TREATAS function to use the values from another column as a filter for your desired column. You could use:

TREATAS( VALUES( Colors[Color] ), Products[Color] )

 

If you need any help please let me know.
If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍
 
Best regards
Denis
