how to add serial number / row number in the visual?

Hi, how can i achieve this in my visual?  I cannot add the add column starting with 1 for this since that will be static. I need the row numbers for the visual so that it changes dynamically. Capture.PNG

You can add a index column in Power Query which will have unique value and then use above logic based on index value.

 

Thanks

Try this

 

rownum = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(Table1),FILTER(ALLSELECTED(Table1),Table1[Name]<=MAX(Table1[Name])))

 

Thanks

I tried this already (got it from other post). It does not work in my case because I don’t have unique ID/name . It repeated. So if ID 1 has name abc repeated twice I will see 2,2 as row number for them instead of 1,2. Makes sense?
