Question about Matrix Data Representation and Text Fields
- 2 years ago
Hi Anonymous ,
You can flexibly create visualizations of text string outputs using ConcatenateX function. The syntax is super-simple, and it is my favorite dax function.

Unfortunately matrix isn't support unaggregated values.
There is an idea about this issue you can vote for it by the link :
https://ideas.fabric.microsoft.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=2f4885a2-e130-4852-aefc-8d032c09249bAs an alternative, you can try to create a measure using concatenateX .
(Will work not bad id there is not much data on the cell level)Something like this with a comma :
Categories = CONCATENATEX(values('Products'[Category]),[Category],",")OR with unichar (10 )to see every value on another row:
Categories 2 = CONCATENATEX(values('Products'[Category]),[Category],UNICHAR(10))pbix is attached

But if I concatenate, it won't help me because today in Power BI, if my process ran 3 times, it will bring the statuses Failed, Completed, and Updating. The correct thing is to bring only Updating, but sometimes it brings Failed because it is programmed to bring only the first in the matrix field, and I set it to bring the last one, but it takes it randomly sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
If I concatenate, it will bring all 3, but the visualization would be very poor because I wanted only 1 status.
Sorry for my English, I don't speak the language very well

Hi Anonymous
What about using ConcatenateX in conjunction with the filter function to only get the latest status with respect to the time dimention?
