Advanced filtering by seconds

Hi

 

Im quite new to Power BI but have found it quite easy to use...

But I have a dataset (Blod volume Pulse over time) where I would like to be able to look into different time intervals.

 

I use the Advanced filtering on the time column, and it works perfectly - I can show what happens from 04:28 to 04:29... But I would like to be able to be more precise than just hours and minutes! How can I define that I want to look at the interval 04:28:24-04:28:45?

    Hi Lasse,

     

    Current power bi seems not contain more detail filter which support to filter to second level.
    For your requirement, I think you can submit this to idea forum to improve the filter feature.

    Hi Lasse,

     

    when you have the data in seconds, you can change the format. Go to the query and click on your row with your data (Blood volume Pulse over time). On transform you can change the duration or time-data into seconds.

      Hi Christopher

       

      In my query I have two columns. One with the "Blood volume pulse" and one with the time (data type: Date/Time) with both the date andt time in hours, minutes and seconds.

       

      Is it in the query editor I have to change the format?

      Now I see what you meant - but when I transform the date/time column to seconds - i no longer can use the advanced filtering to make an interval based on the time? In the column I have data from several hours, so if I only look at the seconds it dosent make any sense...
