Dynamic Hierarchy based on multiple columns selection from drop down lists

Hello all,

 

Need some help to create a dynamic hierarchy by selecting the column names from multiple lists, this will also represent the order in the hierarchy.
Table format is shown below.
Basically it has 6 category columns (c1 to c6) and some values columns (num1 and 2)
What I need is to create 3 dropdown menus and select the respective columns (egg. c1, c4, c2 / c6, c3, c4 ) and filter a respective bar chart or table or other visualization.
Another issue that I have is that after selecting a value from the first dropdown that value should not be present in the second nor third dropdown and so on.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Nope, current power bi not allow you to create hierarchy based on dynamic fields. They require to use static fields as sublevel, their sublevel also not support dynamic change current hierarchy level.
