Please correct me IF condition
Hello Members, Please let me know is my below IF condition is correct / wrong. I am finding Totalminute between Issue Detection Time & Incident Start which is generated by name XYZ
if [Triggered XYZ] = 1 {
if {
[#" Detection Time (UTC)"] < [#"Incident Start (UTC)"] then
Duration.TotalMinutes([#"Detection Time (UTC)"] - [#"Incident Start (UTC)"])
else
Duration.TotalMinutes([#"Incident Start (UTC)"] - [#"Detection Time (UTC)"])}
}
else
"null"
}
Anonymous , Try soething like this
if [Triggered XYZ] = 1 then if [#" Detection Time (UTC)"] < [#"Incident Start (UTC)"] then Duration.TotalMinutes([#"Detection Time (UTC)"] - [#"Incident Start (UTC)"]) else Duration.TotalMinutes([#"Incident Start (UTC)"] - [#"Detection Time (UTC)"]) else "null"

This looks like something you might want to post in the Power Query forum: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Power-Query/bd-p/power-bi-services
What are you trying to find? Please explain your criteria a bit more in 'plain english' so we can help troubleshoot your IF statement, and also please describe your problem. You probably need a 'for each' that seems to be missing.
Did you try starting with the simple Add Column tab in the ribbon and click the "Conditional Column" button? This will give you the bones/structure to start your formula. - AllisonKennedyThere is also a button in the Power Query ribbon to calculate duration or total minutes if you select the Detection Time and Incident Start columns, then look in the Add Column tab on the right. They might help you with a start, but I'm not sure where the IF part comes in based on your question.
