Analyse in Excel drillthrough not working (returns 1)

 

Hi, I have a Excel pivot table connected to a Power BI dataset. When double clicking on a value, I always get .... 1. See screenshot. How come? Changing max rows to 1000000 doesn't change the result.

I just figured it out, at least in my case.  If you organize measures into a disconnected table in the dataset, then the drillthrough will not work in Excel.  If you move the measure to the table it was based off of then it will work.

Did you ever figure this out?  I am having same issue.

Unfortunately no, that remained a mystery ... ;(

Oh, good to know! I indeed have a measure table. Thanks 🙂

I believe this is a bug.  Where the measure is organized should have no effect on the actual expression.

There's definitely more than one row, that's for sure.

For the cell you doub-clicked on, maybe there is only one row in the data model. Can you verify that?
