funcion concatenate

I want to use the CONCATENATE function but when I put it I do not see the table with the data that I want to concatenate. I get just one of the boards. How can I check out data from any table?

    Hi pabloschmidt ,

     

    I see you are using directly mode. Check the document.

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dax/concatenate-function-dax#remarks .

    It says "This function is not supported for use in DirectQuery mode when used in calculated columns or row-level security (RLS) rules."

    Remarks

    • The CONCATENATE function joins two text strings into one text string. The joined items can be text, numbers or Boolean values represented as text, or a combination of those items. You can also use a column reference if the column contains appropriate values.

    • The CONCATENATE function in DAX accepts only two arguments, whereas the Excel CONCATENATE function accepts up to 255 arguments. If you need to concatenate multiple columns, you can create a series of calculations or, better, use the concatenation operator (&) to join all of them in a simpler expression.

    • If you want to use text strings directly, rather than using a column reference, you must enclose each string in double quotation marks.

    • This function is not supported for use in DirectQuery mode when used in calculated columns or row-level security (RLS) rules.

     

    Best Regards,
