I have three tables with a relationship between each one
Table1
Key1
Col1
Table2
Key1
Key2
Col2
Table3
Key2
Col3
Relationships:
Table1(Key1) --> Table2(Key1)
Table2(Key2) --> Table3(Key2)
If I add a slicer on Table3's column Key2 and a table visual displaying Table1.Col1, I expected the table's contents to change when I select different values in the slicer. They do not. If I add Table2.col2 to the table visual everything works.
Why doesn't Power BI walk through the relationships from Table3->Table2->Table1 if I do not reference a column from Table2?
In SQL I can do the equivalent query and it works (see below), so why not in Power BI?
Select Table1.Col1
from Table1, Table2, Table3
where Table1.Key1 = Table2.Key1
and Table2.Key2 = Table3.Key3
and Table3.Col3 = 'XYZ'

Are your filter directions really unidirectional? If so, that's probably your answer, convert them to cross-filter in both directions.

Thanks! I missed the bi-directional relationship 🙂
