Get values selected in slicers from Python

I have a couple of slicers in my report that are built from columns in unrelated tables. I want to get the values selected in those two slicers from my Python script and execute a calculation based on these selections. How can I get the values of my slicers in my Python script?

Add these columns to the values well of your Python visual. They will then be part of the dataframe.

Hi @lg01 ,

 

You can use DAX functions such as SELECTEDVALUE or VALUES to capture selected values. For example:

 

SelectedValue = SELECTEDVALUE(Table1[Column1])
Values = Values(Table2[Column2])

import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt


df = dataset


selected_value1 = df['SelectedValue'].iloc
selected_value2 = df['Values'].iloc


result = selected_value1 + selected_value2  


print(result)

 

Hope it helps!
