Get slicer selected member keys as measure

[elidman]

Hi,

I'm would like to generate a concatenated string of selected members (keys) from a slicer as a measure text string.

The end-user pick a few companies (CompanyName) in a slicer and I want the measure to return a string of CompanyKeys of the selected companies.

I have tried this;

VAR Company = IF(ISFILTERED(DimCompany[CompanyKey]) ,

                "CompanyKey = " & CONCATENATEX(ALLSELECTED(DimCompany[CompanyKey]) , DimCompany[CompanyKey] , " , ") & CR_LF , "")

It works great, if the slicer show the surugat key "CompanyKey". But the user do not understand what the number 12344321 means... We need to use the CompanyName in the slicer.

And I have tried this;

Selected filters = if(HASONEFILTER(DimCompany[CompanyName]), Values(DimCompany[CompanyKey]))

This is exactly what I want to do, except I want the user to be able to do multi-select in the slicer, which HASONEFILTER do not support.

Any help would be appriciated,

/Erik

Hi @elidman ,

Please try below steps:

1. below is my test table

Table:

2. create a measure with below dax formula

Measure =
VAR _str =
    CONCATENATEX ( 'Table', [Company Name], "," )
VAR tmp =
    CALCULATETABLE (
        VALUES ( 'Table'[Company Key] ),
        CONTAINSSTRING ( _str, 'Table'[Company Name] )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        ISFILTERED ( 'Table'[Company Name] ),
        CONCATENATEX ( tmp, [Company Key], "
" )
    )

3. add a sclicer with "Table[Company Name]", add a card visual with measure

Please refer the attached .pbix file.

@elidman , not very clear, but if you have company name column too

VAR Company = IF(ISFILTERED(DimCompany[CompanyKey]) ,
"CompanyKey = " & CONCATENATEX(DimCompany, DimCompany[CompanyKey] & " - " & DimCompany[CompanyName] , " , ") & CR_LF , "")
