How do I add text to a data point on a Line Chart?

Does anyone know how I can add dynamic text to a Line chart via DAX or another method. Would prefer to avoid using a custom visual if possible.
Looking to add text or comment to one or more data points. Thanks

Need Help

    Never tried this myself, but I guess you can create a confitional measure and use it in the tooltips box...Make sense?

        hi harryfasb6000 

        To my knowledge, it couldn't be achieved in power bi for now.

        Line chart only supports numeric fields or measure in Value for now.

        You can post your new idea in Idea Forum, to improve the Power BI.

         

        Regards,
