Eurostat ds-045409 rest API how to interpret the VALUES

Hi lakmoor 

For your question, I assume you want to get the data from the api in power bi and if the data has a hierarchical structure, filter multiple matches starting from the bottom. Here's how to help you with the process:

Import data from the API into Power BI

Get data from API:

Open Power BI Desktop.

Click Get Data and select Web as the data source.

Enter the API endpoint URL. If the API requires authentication, you will be prompted to provide the necessary credentials or API key.

Download Data:

Once the data is available, you can choose to load the data directly or use the Power Query editor to transform the data, if needed.

Convert data (optional):

If hierarchical or nested data is returned from the API, use the Power Query editor to expand columns or create the hierarchies required for analysis.

Bottom-up filtering of hierarchical data

Once you have hierarchical data in Power BI, you can filter from the bottom up by following these steps:

Create a hierarchy:

In Power BI Desktop, create a hierarchy in your data model by dragging fields toward each other in the Fields pane to create a hierarchy.

Use layered slicers:

Add a slicer to the report and set it to use the hierarchy you created.

This allows users to drill down into the hierarchy and select the lowest level item, effectively filtering from bottom to top.

DAX indicator (advanced):

If more complex filtering is required, consider creating DAX measures that reference the underlying hierarchy to filter the data accordingly.

If you are still having problems, please provide more details and the results you require. It's best to provide the pbix file and be careful to remove sensitive data.
