Help adding a DISTINCT function within a calculated table

Hi,

 

I am having issues where the row size of a calculated table is over the 1m rows limit. I would like to try and use the distinct function within the calculated table statement to just show distinct values of a column to try and get around the 1m row limit. The original function is below:

Missing From CMDB =
SELECTCOLUMNS (
    CALCULATETABLE(
        IT_Current,
        EXCEPT ( VALUES ( it_current[ip_address_rapid7] ), VALUES ( CMDB_Active[IP_Address] ) )
    ),
    "IP_Address_Rapid7", IT_Current[IP_ADDRESS_RAPID7],
    "Host_Name", it_current[host_name_rapid7],
     "operating_system", it_current[os_description]
)

Again, I would like to add the DISTINCT function within the above statement to just show distinct values for "IT_Current[IP_ADDRESS_RAPID7]"

Hi @teaguejs ,

Please update the formula of the calculated table [Missing From CMDB] as below and check if it can return the expected result. Please find the details in the attachment.

Missing From CMDB =
GROUPBY (
    CALCULATETABLE (
        IT_Current,
        EXCEPT (
            VALUES ( it_current[ip_address_rapid7] ),
            VALUES ( CMDB_Active[IP_Address] )
        )
    ),
    IT_Current[IP_ADDRESS_RAPID7],
    it_current[host_name_rapid7],
    it_current[os_description]
)

If the above one can't help you get the desired result, please provide some sample data in your tables 'IT_Current' and 'CMDB_Active' (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples. It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. You can refer the following link to upload the file to the community. Thank you.
