Is there a DAX function that will return the name or ID of a Power BI app

[vanessa]

Hi,

Is there a DAX function that will return the name or ID of a Power BI app ?

I am basically duplicating an app for 2 different sets of users.  In one version of the app I want to implement some conditional formatting, whereas there is no conditional formatting in the 2nd app. 

Is there a way to achieve this?

Hi @vanessa ,

As far as I know there's no such DAX function.

However you may use REST API to get the APP name and id.

Please check the following documents.

Hi @vanessa 

Currently I do not know of anyway.

What I would do is to have 2 PBIX files and one would have the conditional formatting and the other PBIX would not

I know this means 2 PBIX files but when using Tabular Editor it makes it easy to copy and paste measures etc.
