How to mae dynamic date/time slicer?

Hi

 

I have date/time column as below

 

 

 

I wanted to make a combined date-time slicer. For example, I want to select 01/01/2021 5 PM or 01/01/2021 4 am. Is that possible in Power BI? 

 

I have gone through a similar kind of posts but not successful

 

Please advise

    Hi Jason2500 ,

     

    Based on your description, if I understand correctly, you may just want to filter out a specific hour value. Is that correct?

    You can create a column as follows.

    My test table:

     

    Column:

    DT-hour = HOUR('test'[DT])&" - "&'test'[DT].[Date]

     

     

    Result:

     

    Hope that's what you were looking for.

    Best Regards,

    Yuna
