Create histogram out of id count

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

I need help with creation of dynamic histogram.

I have a table with one columns being Case ids, that can appear multiple times.

I need to create a column chart with x axis showing, 0,1,2,3,4..... which represent how many times case id appears in a table, and y axis showing how many distinct Case ids are in that category? 

I have tried summarise and groupby daax, but nothing i tried worked.

Example of what i have:

Case Id
123
234
345
456
123
123
345

Example of what i am trying to achieve:

Count Category	Number of distinct cases
1	2
2	1
3	1

PLease assist

Thank you

There is a custom visual called Histogram, available in the store.

Otherwise, if you don't want to use a custom visual:

(Edit from my last answer to make dynamic:)

Create this table:

Hist = GENERATESERIES(1,100,1)

Then this measure:

Histogram Values = 
var _table= ADDCOLUMNS(VALUES('Table'[Column1]),"CountValue",CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[Column1])))

var _selected = SELECTEDVALUE(Hist[Value])

RETURN 
COUNTX(FILTER(_table,[CountValue]=_selected),[CountValue])

Change 'Table'[Column1] to your Column.

Now make a column chart and use Hist[Value] in the axis, and the measure [Histogram Values] in values.
