Substring and Approximative Match
Hi,
I have an issue and I am really stuck here, let me explain it:
Currently I have 2 sources and no exact matching.
What do I want to achieve?
I want to match SOURCE1.bucket/source with SOURCE2.bucket because at the end I want to have all the information separatly.
database > source> table> bucket
let me know if I can just "split" this column SOURCE1.bucket/source but I there is no logic...
Many thanks,
Naïma
Hi,
This calculated column formula works
Column = FIRSTNONBLANK(FILTER(VALUES(Buckets[BUCKET]),SEARCH(Buckets[BUCKET],Data[FULL_DATABASE_NAME],1,0)),1)

Power Query. Split column by delimiter has ''from digit to non-digit" as an option.
That might do it
What about using Text.Range with Text.Length from the Source column to get the bucket from the last column?
Post some more realistic data (not a picture) if you want more help, please.
Below what I could give as data, I hope it will be useful.
Thanks,

Measure = MAXX ( FILTER ( CROSSJOIN ( tbl1, tbl2 ), CONTAINSSTRING ( tbl1[BUCKET /SOURCE], tbl2[BUCKET] ) = TRUE () ), [BUCKET] )Calculated Column
Column = VAR _0 = FILTER ( CROSSJOIN ( tbl1, tbl2 ), CONTAINSSTRING ( tbl1[BUCKET /SOURCE], tbl2[BUCKET] ) = TRUE () ) VAR _1 = MAXX ( FILTER ( _0, [FULL_DATABASE_NAME] = EARLIER ( tbl1[FULL_DATABASE_NAME] ) ), [BUCKET] ) RETURN _1
I'd probably do this in Power Query:
This is the code for the custom column:
(row) => List.Max( List.Select( SOURCE2[BUCKET], each Text.Contains(row[FULL_DATABASE_NAME], _) ) )
