Helper II am learning Dax and just loaded DaxStudio, how do I develope measures
Hi I want to start learning how to write Measures in dax studio, but not sure how I would go about it. For example I have a simple measure, SalesAmount:=SUM([Amount]). How can I run this in Dax studio? I tried just the =SUM([Amount]) and got nothing, added the = sign and got nothing. Do I have to do in the contaext of an expression that returns a table? What is the best way to develope complex Dax measures?
My model is in Tabular 2016. I can connect to the model and see my Cube, tables and columns
Any help appreciated, Thanks,
Mike

Are you connected to a PBI Model or Tabular Server?
When you pull up DAX Studio, it should ask you to connect to something.
