Displaying Today date in Card

I'm trying to dipslay today date to display in a card.

 

I've created the measure todaydate=today().

 

The card is displaying todaydate not the actual 'Date' itself. Not sure what I'm missing?Capture.PNG

@devika , Measure

todaydate=today()

Should work. Just check you are using card visual.

 

You may like to show max date from a table

max Date = maxx(Table, table[date])

or

max Date = maxx(all(Table), table[date])

Thanks everyone for your time.. I was using wrong visual and moved to card and it works fine (Please bear with me this is my first Dashboard)

@devika It looks like you're using a column visual - change it to Card and this should help:

The 'TodayDate' is just the title of the visual.

@devika the measure you have created will only shows today's date. Evertime you open the powerbi file or dashboard it will refresh today's date and will show the current date.

 

if you want to show any other date, please write back
