Hi @wolfy_ ,

Based on my research, there is no dax function to get column name, you could refer to others' solutions by using M code in query editor or you could submit an idea in ideas forum:

Hi,

 

 

I was trying to implement and noticed that the table is created as a DAX expression.

 

@parry2k @Ashish_Mathur is a solution for this?

Hi,

Mine is an M code.  So if you original table is a Table created via DAX, then my solution will not work.

Hi @parry2k,

 

No the number of columns can variate.

@wolfy_ sounds good. solution attached. Most of the work is done in power query to transform the table and then a measure take cares of concatenating the columns.

Hi @parry2k I wasn't clear about my data and my objective.

 

My data is like:

 

I would like to have "measure" that would give the output

 

true_false.png

 

For example for the first line it would be some like: CHECK_MR

 

If for example was
False; False; True

the output would be "CHECK_name_MRBTS_s_LNBTS;CHECK_MR

If it is

True; False; False

CHECK_MR;CHECK_cPlanedscp

 

 

Thanks in advance
