I have a single table that contains a 'Devices_UID_Value' colum (which is a Unique computer or phone device id). I also have a column which contains a 'file_source_name'. I want to return instances where the 'Devices_UID_Value' match more than one 'file_source_name'.
Similarly, I have a another table with an 'IP_Address' column, and with a 'User_ID" column. I want to return instances where the 'IP_Address' is associated with multiple 'User_IDs'
Any suggestions?
Hello @arutkowski,
To return instances where the 'Devices_UID_Value' match more than one 'file_source_name', you can use the following:
DeviceCount = COUNTROWS(
FILTER(
SUMMARIZE('Table', 'Table'[Devices_UID_Value], 'Table'[file_source_name]),
CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[file_source_name])) > 1
)
)
To return instances where the 'IP_Address' is associated with multiple 'User_IDs':
IPCount = COUNTROWS(
FILTER(
SUMMARIZE('Table', 'Table'[IP_Address], 'Table'[User_ID]),
CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[User_ID])) > 1
)
)
Let me know if you may require further guidance.
Thank you for the offered solution. It does not appear to work. I will paste screenshots so you can see.
The first photo shows what happens if I drop the measure onto a table with the two column names in question.
The second photo shows that the underlying data does indeed have matches.
I also tried the IP address formula, but as it is the same formula, I also did not get any results, even though upon manual inspection, there are in fact matches.
