How to compare data with PowerBI Q&A

Cheers, 

 

I'm wondering if there is a way to compare e.g. two time ranges with Power BI Q&A. 

e.g. "compare this week's active users vs last week active users"

 

I realize I could build that with a time intelligence function with DAX, but that means I can't use data that we push into PowerBI through the REST API (because the data set is not exposed to PowerBI desktop and can't be edited on the desktop). 

 

Any heads up will be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

 

There is a good documentation about Q&A 🙂

https://support.powerbi.com/knowledgebase/articles/664393

 

A sample

"Show <column>, where <column> is between <range>
Examples:
Show products, where price is between $10 and $30
Show sales, where date is between 2012 and 2014"

 

Hope it's help you.

Hi, 

 

thanks for the link - but the problem I have is not solved in the documentation; it isn't mentioning how to compare data from two different date ranges.
