Creating a Flag

[ocmarketing]

Very new to using PowerBi I was looking for a video that demonstrated how to create a flag on certain data. For example "bad" email addresses. Not sure if this gives enough context - hoping someone may be able to assist. Thank you!

Hi @ocmarketing ,

Please refer to this thread:

let
    IsValidEmail = (input as text) =>
    let
        name = Text.BeforeDelimiter(input,"@",{0,RelativePosition.FromEnd}),
        ext = Text.AfterDelimiter(input,".",{0,RelativePosition.FromEnd}),
        domain = Text.BetweenDelimiters(input,name&"@","."&ext),
        return =
            Text.Length(name) > 0 and
            Text.Length(domain) > 0 and
            Text.Length(ext) > 1 and Text.Length(ext) < 6 and
            name = Text.Select(name, {"a".."z","A".."Z","0".."9","_","-","."}) and
            domain = Text.Select(domain, {"a".."z","A".."Z","0".."9","_","-","."}) and
            ext = Text.Select(ext, {"a".."z","A".."Z"})
    in
        return
in
    IsValidEmail

You can further mark up these values by using conditional formatting colors. If I have misunderstood your question or you need further help please feel free to contact me.
