Simply query DAX - IF null...

Hi Anonymous
Perhaps
Column2 = IF (ISBLANK('merge1'[Components.name]); "1"; "0" )

Hi Anonymous
It seems you create a measure not a column, so it throw the error.
If you create a measure below, it can be right.
but if the [Components.name] column is of text type, null value doesn't mean to be blank, it is a "null" text value.
you can create a measure like
Measure = if(MAX('Table'[Components.name])<>"null", "1","0")But measures can't be added into slicer, it just can be added into visual level filter.
To create a column and add it into a slicer,
Column = if('Table'[Components.name]<>"null", "1","0") or Column = if(ISBLANK('Table'[Components.name]), "0","1")Best Regards

HI AlB
I get information
"You cannot specify a single value for the 'Components.name' column in the 'merge1' table. This may be due to the fact that the measurement formula refers to a column containing many values without a specific aggregation, such as a minimum value, maximum value, number or sum, allowing to obtain a single result."

Hi Anonymous
Are you creating a calculated column or a measure?? That sounds like the message you would get when creating a measure. It should be fine with a calculated column

Anonymous please post a sample of your data and your expected result. Also be specific about where you are doing this. To AlB 's point, DAX for columns and measures is different becuase the former uses row context and the latter uses filter context, two totally different things. Formulas perfectly valid in one will fail in the other.
