Custom Label for Data Label not working on PowerBI Service

[Anonymous]

Hello all, we are trying to show/hide the Data Label using a column with the definition below:

Display custom label = IF(
    MOD(financials[Month Number], 2) = 0
    , " "
)

This [Display custom label] field is being assigned to the field of Custom label in the Data Label visual of a chart.

I created an MRE (Minimal Reproducible Example) using the sample dataset (financials) provided by PowerBI to reproduce this issue and below is the result.

At the right side, it works fine on my PowerBI Desktop - Version: 2.118.828.0 64-bit (June, 2023).

However, when we publish to PowerBI Service, it is not showing the Data Label (at the left).

We could not provide the value for the False condition due to some constraints, but that is an optional field, the PowerBI Service should work like the one in the PowerBI Desktop.

This is the MRE: https://filebin.net/aoot6la1vnl4quvl

Any workaround or solution for this?

Thanks.

For one of my client the workaround to use a "Line and stacked column chart" worked instead of using a "Line and clustered column chart" which was showing the same issue in service that is being reported here.

@AnkitKukreja is yours working properly in PBI Service?

The sample of @migbenp is using stacked, and same with mine, Line and stacked column chart but also not working in PBI service.

Hi @Afives522 

Yes that worked for my client in Service.

Now, I´ve reinstalled once again "Version: 2.121.903.0 64-bit (September 2023)" and it´s working in web service. Maybe this release has this bug fixed. For me, I´m done.  Thanks

I'm having the exactly same issue.

So far, custom labels are being useless if they are not shown in PBI Services.

[R27878]

New version, with same problem. @migbenp the PBI team still working on it?

[j_pereira]

It seems the problem is fixed everyone. 

The custom data labels magically appeared in my dashboard.

That was so good to be true...

New problem: at my desktop, the label works fine. But in the PBI Services my custom label is replaced by the axis value.

Is anyone facing the same?
