Line Chart using COUNTROWS measure only returning blank
I am new to PowerBI so this is probably a novice question. I have a very simple table that I am trying to represent on a line chart but my COUNTROWS is returning a BLANK value, which is expected, but the suggestions from other posts to add 0 to the COUNTROWS return value or using the IF and ISBLANK combination do not seem to be working for me.
I created a measure as shown below.
LabelActivites = IF(ISBLANK(COUNTROWS('Table')), 0, COUNTROWS('Table'))
In my chart below, my settings are:
X Axis = Date
Values = LabelActivities
Legend = Activity
As can be seen, my measure is still returning blank values instead of '0'.
Any help in what I am overlooking would be greatly appreciated!
Hi,
You had not created a relationship between the tables. You may download my PBI file from here.
Hope this helps.

Hi ImprovingCL
That measure shouldn't return Blank if your table contains the rows as shown in your image.
Have you used a Card visual to verify the value in the LabelActivities measure?
Can you please share your PBIX file?

Hi PhilipTreacy,
I can see in a Card Visual that the value being returned looks correct. I have put my PBIX file in the link below.
In the PBIX, the first page contains the visual using the data I am actually trying to represent correctly, but my "Sample" table is in there as well.
Thanks,
Chris
