Converting an Integer to a Text Value in Power BI

Converting an Integer to a Text Value in Power BI

In Power BI, you can convert an integer to a text value using the "Text.From" function. Here's an example of how you can achieve this:

let // Your integer column or variable YourInteger = 123, // Convert the integer to text TextValue = Text.From(YourInteger) in TextValue

Replace "YourInteger" with the actual name of your integer column or variable. This code creates a new variable called "TextValue" that stores the text representation of the integer.

If you're working with a column in a table, you can use the "Add Custom Column" option in Power BI to create a new column with the text representation of your integer values using the same approach.

Examples

  1. Convert Integer to Text Using DAX CONVERT Function

    -- Convert integer to text using DAX CONVERT function TextValue = CONVERT([IntegerColumn], TEXT)

    Description: Use the CONVERT function in DAX to convert an integer column to text.

  2. Convert Integer to Text Using DAX FORMAT Function

    -- Convert integer to text using DAX FORMAT function TextValue = FORMAT([IntegerColumn], "0")

    Description: Utilize the FORMAT function in DAX with a format string to convert an integer column to text.

  3. Concatenate Integer with Empty String for Text Conversion

    -- Concatenate integer with empty string for text conversion TextValue = [IntegerColumn] & ""

    Description: Concatenate an integer column with an empty string to implicitly convert it to text.

  4. Convert Integer to Text with Leading Zeros

    -- Convert integer to text with leading zeros TextValue = FORMAT([IntegerColumn], "0000")

    Description: Use the FORMAT function in DAX with a format string to convert an integer to text with leading zeros.

  5. Convert Integer to Text with Custom Text

    -- Convert integer to text with custom text TextValue = "Value: " & FORMAT([IntegerColumn], "0")

    Description: Concatenate a custom text prefix with the formatted integer value using the FORMAT function.

  6. Handle Null Values While Converting Integer to Text

    -- Handle null values while converting integer to text TextValue = IF(ISBLANK([IntegerColumn]), "", FORMAT([IntegerColumn], "0"))

    Description: Use the IF statement to handle null values and convert the integer to text.

  7. Convert Integer to Text Using DAX SELECTCOLUMNS

    -- Convert integer to text using DAX SELECTCOLUMNS TextValue = SELECTCOLUMNS(FILTER(YourTable, TRUE), "TextValue", [IntegerColumn] & "")

    Description: Use SELECTCOLUMNS to create a new column with the converted text values.

  8. Convert Integer to Text Using DAX CONCATENATEX

    -- Convert integer to text using DAX CONCATENATEX TextValue = CONCATENATEX(FILTER(YourTable, TRUE), [IntegerColumn] & "", ",")

    Description: Use CONCATENATEX to concatenate text values with a delimiter for each row.

  9. Convert Integer to Text with Custom Conditions

    -- Convert integer to text with custom conditions TextValue = SWITCH( TRUE(), [IntegerColumn] < 0, "Negative", [IntegerColumn] > 0, "Positive", [IntegerColumn] = 0, "Zero" )

    Description: Use the SWITCH function to apply custom conditions and convert the integer to corresponding text values.

  10. Convert Integer to Text Using DAX VALUES Function

    -- Convert integer to text using DAX VALUES function TextValue = VALUES(YourTable[IntegerColumn]) & ""

    Description: Use the VALUES function to retrieve unique values from the integer column and implicitly convert them to text.
