Hi,
Is there some kind of way to convert a DAX measure to an SQL statement?
Thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @analystict ,
There isn’t an option to convert a DAX measure to an SQL statement directly in Power BI. You can reference the following link to convert manually.
https://www.sqlbi.com/articles/from-sql-to-dax-filtering-data/
If you want to check the SQL statement behind a DAX Measure. You can reference this link to use SQL profiler to check the SQL code . But the functions that can be used in DAX are not necessarily available in SQL statement, and the reverse is also true.
For any question about T-SQL, I would suggest you post thread on Transact_SQL forum. When you create a thread, please post sample data to show others the original dataset and your expected result.
Best Regards,
Xue Ding
