I can't find the warning code triangle  exactly but I've found this code in a table provided. 9206.  

 

I set a measure and this is what I wrote:

1 UC_Icons = unichar(9206)

 

this gives you a black upward pointing triangle and i'm thinking I can just go and change the colour to red or #FB0303

Hope that helps.

Hi @RENJITH_R_S ,

 

Have you read this thread?

You can achieve the color by using the color formatting.

 

Hope this helps.

Hi @RENJITH_R_S 

You can find the Unicode in the link below .

https://exceleratorbi.com.au/dax-unichar-function-power-bi/

However , not all graphics and colors have according Unicode , you need to make some changes . You can refer to the case below , that is the graphics and colors I set for a client . In the case that the Unicode that exactly matches the color and shape cannot be found , you can find the shape Unicode first , then configure conditional formatting for the shape .

I dont think all the symbols with the colours that you mentioned have unichar codes
