Average and Countrows formula help

I need to create a measure which shows the average number of queries from my dataset. So every row in the dataset is a query. 
So countrows should give me the total number of queries
Average should then give me the average of that count I guess, then I can apply dimensions such as date - to see average queries per day.
 
This is my attempt which does not work:
Average Queries = AVERAGE(COUNTROWS('Tech Claims Report'),'Tech Claims Report')
 
 
HELP! 🙂

HI @Anonymous,

 

I'd like to suggest you take a look at library to know how these functions works:

 

AVERAGE:Returns the average (arithmetic mean) of all the numbers in a column.

COUNTROWS:The COUNTROWS function counts the number of rows in the specified table, or in a table defined by an expression.

 

You can also try to use following measure formula to group records based on category fields and get the average of these row count:

measure =
AVERAGEX (
    SUMMARIZE (
        Table,
        [Group column1],
        [Group column2],
        [Group column2],
        "Row Count", COUNTROWS ( Table )
    ),
    [Row Count]
)
