    Hi Anonymous,

     

    To achieve your requirement, you can use SEARCH() function to match two tables. Please refer to following calculated column with DAX expression:

     

    Key Column =
CALCULATE (
    IF (
        COUNTROWS ( VALUES ( 'Project Names'[Project Names] ) ) > 1,
        "More than 1 Project Names",
        VALUES ( 'Project Names'[Project Names] )
    ),
    FILTER (
        ALL ( 'Project Names'[Project Names] ),
        SEARCH ( 'Project Names'[Project Names], 'URL'[URL], 1, 0 ) <> 0
    )
)

     

    Thanks,
    Xi Jin.
