Hi. I have tried looking for the answer everywhere but still do not know what I am doing incorrectly.
I have created a survey through Microsoft Forms that respondents will answer. I am hoping to use BI to visualise the real time data, I have managed to follow a few tutorials and have been able to connect real time data in Microsoft Forms using Flow.
The issue is that some of the fields are not appearing as they should when I am trying to present them through Visualisations. I have found that most of the examples are when the fields are based of questions with 'multiple check boxes'.
For example: the question I have asked is (this is just as an example), what is your favourite icecream flavour?
The options given were: chocolate, vanilla and strawberry.
Because some respondents have ticked more than one box, I am getting responses which state: "Chocolate", "Vanilla".
Is there a way to visualise the data to show that x amount of people selected Chocolate, x amount of people selected Vanilla etc?
Through Microsoft Flows, I have simply listed the question as dynamic content. Is there more that I would be required to do?
Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi @Anonymous ,
I have a sample table like this.

3. Remove the useless column.
4. Create a measure.
Number of selection = COUNT(Sheet6[Value])

This is currently being used as real-time data, so I have created my own data set in BI. Have selected the 'streaming dataset' option. Does that make sense?
@Anonymous , I am not clear on the problem you are facing. In case you want to write back. refer -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxuRzj0X348
Hi @amitchandak thanks for your help. I have atached my question here. As you can see, when I visualise it in a table, these are the response I get. When visualised in a bar graph it has put the responses together (so if a respondent has mentioned a stress being physical/mental, it has put them together. I would like one bar (section) for each stressor. So the graph will show that 2 respondents have selected physical health, 2 respondents have chosen family for e.g.
