I recommend to use Power Query to get the exact dates between two given dates. You can open Power Query Editor from Home > Transform data in Power BI Desktop. Then follow below steps:
1. Add a custom column to calculate the length of each period.
Duration.Days( ([End Date] - [Start Date]) / [Period] )2. Add the second custom column. In every cell of the column, you will have a list that has all exact dates between the given dates.
List.Dates( Date.AddDays( [Start Date], [Period Days]), [Period] - 1, #duration([Period Days],0,0,0) )3. For the list column, you can choose to expand it to new rows or extract values per your need.
