Calculate time difference (in minutes) between rows in the same column

Hi Everyone, 

 

Hope someone can assist a novice PowerBI user. 

The problem: I need to calculate the time (in minutes) between each row in the "Event Date" column (see screenshot below). 

BankerX_0-1645776988392.png

So, for instance, I want to know the time difference between the second row and first row of the "Event Date" column. This should be 0, but if you have a look at my "Time Difference" column, something funny is going on. 

 

Here is my DAX code: 

 

Time Difference =
VAR _a =
MAX ( EventData[Event Date])
VAR _previousdate =
CALCULATE (
MAX ( EventData[Event Date] ),
FILTER (
ALLEXCEPT('EventData',EventData[Event])
,
EventData[Event Date] < _a
)
)
RETURN
DATEDIFF (
_previousdate,
_a,
MINUTE
)

 

Hopefully someone can help! 

 

Thank you.

@Anonymous , create a new column

datediff([Event Date],maxx(filter(Table, [Index] = earlier([Index])-1),[Event Date]), minute)
