Filters with various conditions

Hello Community! I ask you a query: I need to generate a filter, which should actually be an "Advanced Filter", which basically has to do is that when a word has certain characters, I filter the word. In SQL it would be something like "ANA%" (Everything that has the word ANA and has more characters), "LOG", "% ADA%", etc. Now, Power BI has the advanced filter function, but this does not allow to put more than two conditions. Something like "Contains X" And / or "Contains Y". I need to add more than two conditions to my filter. How can this be done? Thanks!

Hi @Anonymous ,

I would go with a measure, e.g.:

Filter Measure = IF(LEFT(SELECTEDVALUE(Column[Table]), 2) = "A1" && ..., 1)

Then, on the filter panel, filter "Filter Measure" to 1 and the visual will "inherit" the selected filters in the measure.

Best Regards,
