Extract unique values from multiple columns

[BI21]

Hello Power BI community,

I have been trying for some time now to figure out the solution to this problem (I am new to Power BI and DAX) but I could not find the solution myself or on the internet. The problem is pretty basic:

I have a table and I would like to extract the unique values from some of the columns. For example, from the following table I would like to have the unique values of columns 1, 2 and 3, so the answer would be A, B, C, D.

A	D	C	1
A	C	A	2
B	A	B	3
C	B	C	4
D	B	A	5
D	B	B	6

Thanks in advance (also for redirecting me to relevant posts that I might have missed)!

Hello @BI21 ,

like for example you could in power query, duplicate the table you have then remove all columns except the one you want to extract the values from then right click on this column and choose remove duplicates.

so you'll have every unique value in this column.

If I answered your question, please mark my post as solution so it would appeare to others, Appreciate your Kudos 👍

Thank you for your hint! However, this only works when I apply it to one of the columns, not to several columns. So when I mark the first two columns of the example data and apply "Remove duplicates", it only removes the last row because the entry "D (in column 1) B (in column2)" is indeed a duplicate but the result is still a table. I want as answer only "A, B, C, D"
