Hi all,
I want to downsample my data from every second to every minute/hour. I have splitted the Date and Time from DateTime and tried grouping it by per min/hour but I cannot figure out how to select, say 12:00:00am data in the 12:00:00pm - 12:00:59pm, and every minute data after. I just want to take out a data at a fixed interval without the need to sum, average or do any other operations to be shown in the visual.
| DateTime | Date | Time | min | hour | Sensor | Value |
| 1/8/2021 12:00:00 pm | 1/8/2021 | 12:00:00 pm | 0 | 12 | A | 843 |
| 1/8/2021 12:00:01 pm | 1/8/2021 | 12:00:01 pm | 0 | 12 | A | 994 |
| 1/8/2021 12:00:02 pm | 1/8/2021 | 12:00:02 pm | 0 | 12 | A | 994 |
| ... | ... | ... | ... | ... | ... | ... |
| 1/8/2021 12:00:03 pm | 1/8/2021 | 12:00:59 pm | 0 | 12 | A | 873 |
| 1/8/2021 12:01:00 pm | 1/8/2021 | 12:01:00 pm | 1 | 12 | A | 692 |
| ... | ... | ... | ... | ... | ||
| 1/8/2021 01:00:00 pm | 1/8/2021 | 01:00:00 pm | 0 | 13 | A | 899 |
Any help or advice will be appreciated, thank you

Hi @JrKoh ,
You can create a calculated column like
Time = TIME(HOUR([DateTime]),MINUTE([DateTime]),0)

Hi Stephen,
With your solution in mind, I found a way to downsample the data. I created 2 calculated column, Time_1min and Time_H and wrote another DAX measure and put it into the chart filter. I then key in the number into the filter to determine which sampling:
Downsample = SWITCH( TRUE(), SUM(Sensor[Time]) == SUM(Sensor[Time_H]),1, SUM(Sensor[Time]) == SUM(Sensor[Time_1min]),3 ) |
per min
