sumif using in a measure to filter within text

Hi,

I do have the following table coming from Forms via Flow to my PowerBI Dataste.

I want to create a measure, counting the number of distinct expressions within a specific column, e.g. column "Good Performance".

Query.GIF

Values are comma separated within the data fields.

I have tried many options with SEARCH, FILTER, SUMX etc. from what I found in the forum, but failed.

Anyone who can help me with a solution.

Thank you in advance!

Arne

You can use Word cloud custom visuals for this requirement.

Dear Xiaoxin Sheng,

 

I have created an example of data and expected results in Excel. The file is place on oneDrive and expired Wednesday Mar 6 2019.

The solution needs to be a measure as I am working with a data stream and thus are not allowed to use the Power Query Editor and also not allowed to create additional columns.

 

Thank you very much for your support.

Best regards,

Arne

Hi @arne3763,

I have used several transormation in Power query editor and using group by I can achieve your requirement.

After spliting, I have converted all the list to table and Perform append query then performed group by to final table.
You can work around it.

Dear Amit,

thank you for giving it a try.

However, this is not a possible way for me to go as I am using a streaming dataset and though cannot use the query editor (like explained also in my last post).

Therefore, the work arround you proposed unfortunately is not a possible solution.

Thanks again for investing your time.
