Filter a table visual using criteria

I have a table with a year column.

I'd like to only show rows that meet a criteria on that year column.

 

What I've tried:

 

Testing = FILTER(Table1, Table1[Year] = 2020))
 
This gives me: The expression refers to multiple columns. Multiple columns cannot be converted to a scalar value.
 
I'm probably approaching this in the wrong way, as measures are supposed to aggrgate to a singe value and I would like it to return a table/column. How do I filter my table and return it in a table visual?

Hi @Anonymous ,
You can create a measure that aggregate the value for a specific condition and which you can use in visuals .
For example :-
Measure = SUMX(FILTER((Table1, Table1[Year] = 2020)),[Value])
