how to check whether calculated fields and elements are being used

‎04-15-2017 03:55 AM

Hi,

 

I'm using a Power BI file that I suspect has a lot of obsolete calculated fields and elements. Is there a way of finding out which of these are not used in any visualisations? (I have a huge amount of visualisations)

 

Thanks,

 

CM

Hi @CloudMonkey,

 

I haven't found any functions can check which columns has been used before.

BTW, the known way to check the columns is click on one visual, these used columns and tables will be highlighted.

 

Regards,
