DistinctCount of Text values

Hi ,

 

I have trouble using DISTINCTCOUNT on a column of datatype 'Text' .  Say I have column "ProductName' with below values.

 

Facebook

Netflix

Facebook

Netflix

Kodi

 

I created a measure DISTINCTCOUNT(ProductName).It is returning 1 instead of 3.

 

Can anyone assist me in solving this issue ?

 

Regards,

Priya

Hi, with your data DistinctCount return 3. 

 

Did you have a filter applied?
