How to display a DAX variable table in Power BI Table visual

Hi All,

I am using DAX variables in a measure to:

- Create temperary CALCULATEDTABLE bases on user slicer selections

- Use set functions to derive a resulting table

 

The requirement is to be able to display the resulting table. I cannot pre-load these as M query tables as these are caluclated based on user slicer selection.

 

In DAX Studio query I can do the following to return the rows of the resulting table:

DEFINE
    var AllNumbers = {1,2,3,4,5}
    var OddNumbers = {1,3,5}
    var EvenNumbers = EXCEPT(AllNumbers, OddNumbers)
EVALUATE
    EvenNumbers

 

How can I achieve the similar results in Power BI to diplay the results in a Table visual?

Hi Phil,

Thanks for the reply.

But as I mentioned in question, this is dynamic table created in a measure based on user slicer selection.

Therefore it cannot be pre-created as new table.

Hi @anandav 

Did you find a solution in the end ? 
I'm trying to achieve exactly the same thing you're discribing in your post.
Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers !
