Hello All,
I am new to Power BI.
I have a page where I need to show my measure names based on a parameter
If parameter ='Sales' then sales value
else parameter ='Profit' then profit
I am not sure how to do this.
Could any one please help

Hi @Anonymous
It sounds like dynamic measure name, however, the name of column or measure cannot be changed dynamically in Power BI Desktop. You can use slicer, then select the measures according to the slicer. In this scenario, it will not change the name of the measure, but the calculation expression.
For example,
(1) the measure below returns [Profit] when you select "Profit" in Slicer, as is "Sales"
(2) Besides, you can use title function of that visual
Steps:
TitleMeasure =
SWITCH(TRUE(),
MIN(Slicer[Column1])="Profit","Profit",
MIN(Slicer[Column1])="Sales","Sales")
result
