The last introduced DAX functions were announced last year :

Visual Calculations Functions which are designed specifically for visual calculations in Power BI and are not applicable in measures, calculated columns, or calculated tables:

  • COLLAPSE / COLLAPSEALL: Modify the hierarchy levels displayed in a visual by collapsing specific levels.
  • EXPAND / EXPANDALL: Expand hierarchy levels within a visual to show more detailed data.
  • FIRST / LAST: Retrieve values from the first or last row of an axis in the visual matrix.
  • NEXT / PREVIOUS: Access values from the next or previous row of an axis in the visual matrix.
  • MOVINGAVERAGE: Calculate the moving average over a specified number of periods within a visual.
  • RANGE: Define a range of rows in the visual for calculations.
  • RUNNINGSUM: Compute a cumulative sum across rows in a visual.
  • ISATLEVEL: Determine if the current row is at a specific hierarchy level in the visual.

Don't forget that these functions are exclusive to visual calculations and cannot be used in standard DAX expressions.

INFO Functions which are a set of functions providing metadata about the semantic model:

  • INFO.VIEW.COLUMNS: Returns information about columns in the model.
  • INFO.VIEW.MEASURES: Provides details on measures defined in the model.
  • INFO.VIEW.RELATIONSHIPS: Offers insights into relationships between tables.
  • INFO.VIEW.TABLES: Lists tables present in the model.

Additional INFO functions include:

  • INFO.CALCDEPENDENCY: Displays dependencies among calculations.
  • INFO.CATALOGS: Lists catalogs within the model.
  • INFO.CHANGEDPROPERTIES: Identifies properties that have changed.
  • INFO.EXCLUDEDARTIFACTS: Shows artifacts excluded from the model.
  • INFO.FUNCTIONS: Provides information about functions used in the model.
  • INFO.LINGUISTICMETADATA: Returns linguistic metadata associated with the model.
  • INFO.PROPERTIES: Lists properties of objects within the model.
  • INFO.STORAGETABLECOLUMNS: Details columns in storage tables.
  • INFO.STORAGETABLECOLUMNSEGMENTS: Provides information on segments of storage table columns.
  • INFO.STORAGETABLES: Lists storage tables in the model.
