Hi,

 

Is there some kind of way to convert a DAX measure to an SQL statement?

 

Thanks.

Hi @analystict ,

 

There isn’t an option to convert a DAX measure to an SQL statement directly in Power BI.   You can reference  the following link to convert manually.

https://www.sqlbi.com/articles/from-sql-to-dax-filtering-data/

 

 

If you want to check the SQL statement behind a DAX Measure. You can reference this link to use SQL profiler to check the SQL code . But the functions that can be used in DAX are not necessarily available in SQL statement, and the reverse is also true.

 

For any question about T-SQL, I would suggest you post thread on Transact_SQL forum.  When you create a  thread, please post sample data to show others the original dataset and your expected result.
