Count text values that start https://

Hi Experts

 

How would you amend the following measure to count items in a column that start https://

Website Visits =
VAR Result = COUNTROWS(FILTER(BIvw_ResponseTapCalls,
BIvw_ResponseTapCalls[crimson_talktime] >= 1 ))
RETURN
IF ( Result = BLANK (), 0, Result )

Website Visits =
VAR Result =
    COUNTROWS (
        FILTER (
            FILTER ( BIvw_ResponseTapCalls, BIvw_ResponseTapCalls[crimson_talktime] >= 1 ),
            LEFT ( BIvw_ResponseTapCalls[URLcolumn], 8 ) = "https://"
        )
    )
RETURN
    Result + 0

Website Visits =
VAR Result =
    COUNTROWS (
        FILTER (
              LEFT ( BIvw_ResponseTapCalls[URLcolumn], 8 ) = "https://"
        )
    )
RETURN
