Note : (Old Dax measure are listing in search/dropdown)
Also, I tried "New DAX measure" with Old DAX measure queries: not coming in search/dropdown list.

Can you help us with the solution.

Hello @rajendraongole1 Yes, you're right, also we can use Dax measure to have customize narrative words basis on our requirements. same feature has been used for over an year.
which will come into the list automatically(like dropdown), while typing the name of measure.

Hi @vinothkmr ,
I think @rajendraongole1 is right, but I have something else to add.
When you use Smart Narrative, there are some limitations, such as the complexity metric which it does not support.
Refer the following article:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/visuals/power-bi-visualization-smart-narrative
And you could refer the following similar question:

Hi @vinothkmr - Basically smart narriative feature will provide a quick text summary of visuals and reports in a page of visualizations. (Like a key takeways in the form of summary)
