Generate number series based on total number of rows in another table

[Sankzpower]

Hi guys

This probably a simple question but hope you can shed some light. I have a table from web api call which has over 80,000 rows plus keeps on increasing week by week. Now, I need to an another table with the same number of rows. Currently, I use the below to create series and manually increase each week or increase one off to 90,000.

 = GENERATESERIES(1,80000)

But does anyone has a better logic in increase this default?

Thanks in advance

Hi @Sankzpower ,

Just add the following code refering to the first table:

Table 2 = GENERATESERIES(1, COUNTROWS('Table'))

Should work as expected.

Hi I'm using version 2.105.664.0 but this makes an error which says "The expression refers to multiple columns. Multiple columns cannot be converted to a scalar value".
My DAX is this.
Measured Table = SELECTCOLUMNS(FILTER('MyTable', 'MyTable'[MyColumn] <> BLANK()),
"Column1", [Column1],
"Column2", [Column2],
"Column3", GENERATESERIES(1, COUNTROWS(FILTER('MyTable', 'MyTable'[MyColumn] <> BLANK()))))

Hi @jamie_yeo ,

Be aware that the calculation it was given was for a table, you are using a metric and metrics only return a single value so in this case you are trying to return a table, that is why it's giving you the scalar value error.

What is the result you want to achieve in this?is it a table?
