How can a developer (not end-user) view records behind a matrix?

Hi,

 

I know users can no longer see records behind a matrix but how can a developer best find the records that make up the values in a matrix in order to find what is causing errors? (i.e. if I know what value should be in a table then used to use see records to find the records that are causing any difference to the expected value - it was a really important feature so I'm hoping there's another way of effectively doing the same thing?)

 

Thanks,

 

CM

    Hi Anonymous,

     

    Current see records feature already released on power bi desktop, please check below document to make sure you use the supported visual and not match the limitations.

     

    Limitations

    There are a few limitations to consider when using See Data or See Records:

    • Only the following visual types are supported:
      • Bar
      • Column
      • Map
      • Tree Map
      • Filled Map
      • Pie
      • Donut
      • Funnel
    • You can't use See Records when your visual uses a calculated measure
    • You can't use See Records when connected to a live multidimensional (MD) model

    Reference:

    Use See Data and See Records in Power BI Desktop
