Hi All,
I wanted to know if there is any possibility of searching a keyword from 1st table and getting the lookup value from the second table.
| 1st Table |
| Name |
| Definition of climate |
| Climate Infrastructure Opportunities |
| Sustainability-Climate Risk Support |
| ARDIAN Adaptation Analysis |
| 2nd Table | ||
| Keyword | Tag | Rank |
| Climate | Sustainability | 1 |
| Sustainability | Sustainability | 2 |
Wherever the 2nd table keyword matches with the 1st table. the values should be populated from the 2nd table(Tag Column)
| 1st table with Tag | |
| Name | Tag |
| Definition of climate | Sustainability |
| Climate Infrastructure Opportunities | Sustainability |
| Sustainability-Climate Risk Support | Sustainability |
| ARDIAN Adaptation Analysis | Other |

column
column = COALESCE(
CALCULATE(MAX('Table_2'[Tag]),
FILTER ( 'Table_2', CONTAINSSTRING ( 'Table_1'[Name], 'Table_2'[Keyword]) )),"Other")
Hi, @RanjanThammaiah
You can try the following methods.
Column =
IF (
SEARCH ( "Climate", [Name],, 0 ) <> 0,
LOOKUPVALUE ( Table2[Tag], Table2[Keyword], "Climate" ),
"Other"
)
Is this the result you expect?
