Selected Values function is not avaliable with SSAS as data source

Hi All,

 

I am not able to find selected value function. I am using SSAS as a data source.

 

Request your help to solve the problem or you can suggest any alternative for the Selected values function.

 

Thanks in advance.

Yes..I meant that the SELECTEDVALUE function is not avaliable. I Am using SSAS as a data source.

Hi @Anonymous, 

This was a know issue before, but we have fixed it. The function works fine in Power BI desktop, not in Power Bi service? If it is, please create a supported ticket here to get dedicated support.

Hi @v-huizhn-msft

 

@Anonymous is trying to refer that she is using SSAS(Analysis Services) as Data Source which is Modelled in Visual Studio and then further connected to Power Bi Directly. We are unable to find the Syntax SELECTEDVALUE in SSAS for DAX that we generally use in Power BI.

 

Note: Only reply if you have knowledge of SSAS (SQL Server Analysis Services).

 

Thanks,

Hello Rohit,

If you used SELECTEDVALUE( Table[column] )  try below alternative :

if(Hasonevalue(Table[column]),values(Table[column]))

 hope this helps you.
