I have a table of clients that specifies their state and their city.
like this:
_________________________
| client | state | city |
| 1 | texas |dallas|
| 2 | texas |austin|
| ... | ... | ... |
|________|_______|______|
I want to have a map in which i can choose to show the states in which i have clients and then have the option to toggle to another mode that shows the cities i have clients in.
Is there a way to do this in power bi?

I have 2 tables in powerbi, one contains all transactions to and from people (each client identified with an id, where "I" can be either the receiver or sender of $) and the other is the detail for each client.
Table 1 would look something like
| $ | sender id | receiver id |
|---|-----------| ------------|
| 10| 1 | 2 |
| 15| 1 | 3 |
| 20| 1 | 2 |
| 15| 3 | 1 |
| 10| 3 | 1 |
| 25| 2 | 1 |
| 10| 1 | 2 |
The second table contains sender id and name:
| id | name |
|----|-------|
| 1 | "me" |
| 2 | John |
| 3 | Susan |
The expected result is something like (not necesarily in a table, just to show)
| $ sent | $ received | Balance|
|--------|------------|--------|
| 55 | 45 | +10 |
And in a filter have "John" and "Susan" so when i Select one of them i could see $ sent, $received and balance for each of them.
The problem of course is that i end up with one active and one inactive relationship so if i apply such a filter i end up with 0 in sender/receiver and the whole value in the other (depending which is made active and inactive) and if i make another table that's "id sender"+"name sender" then i cant filter all at once.
Is it possible to do this?
I hope this is kinda understandable
You will need to add 2 columns to your user table
received = CALCULATE(SUM(T1[$]), Filter(T1, UserTable[id] = T1[reveicer id]))
The same you can do for send. Now in your visual, use the new columns.
Enjoy!
after going around a bit I found a way to solve this, probably not the most orthodox way to do it, but it works.
What I did is to add 2 columns to my sales table, one was labeled "movement" and in sql it is just a 'case' where when the receiver is 'me' its "Charged" and when the receiver is 'not-me' its "Payment", then i added a column with a case so it would always bring me the 'not-me' id, and i used that for may relationship with my users table.
Then I just added filters in my cards making one a "Payment" card and the other a "Charged" card.
This is all following the previous example, it was actually just a bit more tricky as I could actually have a payment from me to myself, but thats just another "case" for when it was 'me-me'
Hope this is understandable, english is not my first language and the information i actually used is partially confidential so i had to make the above example.
thanks all and have a nice day.
I have data showing me the dates grouped like this:
For security reasons, I had to remove the Customer Description detail, due to confidentiality.
How do I repeat the date column the same way you repeat the Row Labels in an Excel Pivot?
I've looked, but couldn't find a solution to this - this option should be available.
EDIT
When you have the following source data in Excel:
Date | Customer | Item Description | Qty Out | Unit Price | Sales
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14/08/2020 | Customer 1 | Item 11 | 4.00 | 65.00 | 260.00
14/08/2020 | Customer 2 | Item 12 | 56.00 | 12.00 | 672.00
14/08/2020 | Customer 3 | Item 13 | 64.00 | 35.00 | 2,240.00
14/08/2020 | Customer 4 | Item 14 | 29.00 | 65.00 | 1,885.00
15/08/2020 | Customer 2 | Item 15 | 746.00 | 12.00 | 8,952.00
15/08/2020 | Customer 3 | Item 16 | 14.00 | 75.00 | 1,050.00
15/08/2020 | Customer 4 | Item 17 | 45.00 | 741.00 | 33,345.00
15/08/2020 | Customer 5 | Item 18 | 456.00 | 125.00 | 57,000.00
15/08/2020 | Customer 6 | Item 19 | 925.00 | 17.00 | 15,725.00
16/08/2020 | Customer 4 | Item 20 | 6.00 | 532.00 | 3,192.00
16/08/2020 | Customer 5 | Item 21 | 56.00 | 94.00 | 5,264.00
16/08/2020 | Customer 6 | Item 22 | 546.00 | 37.00 | 20,202.00
You then pivot this data using Microsoft Excel, where you get the following:
You then choose the option to Repeat Item Labels as can be seen below:
After selecting this, you get my expected results I require in Power BI:
Is there not a function available like this in Power BI?
Just adding this for your reference as a work around. Check this below image with a custom column created in the Power Query Editor-
date_customer = Date.ToText([Date]) &" : "& [Customer]
Then added both Date and date_customer in the Matrix row level. The output is as below- (using your sample data)
ANOTHER OPTION Another option is to add Date and Customer in the Matrix row and the output is will be as below- (using your sample data)
This is also a meaningful output as date are showing as a group header. But in case of requirement of having redundant date to show, you can consider the first option.
I am newbie in tableau. I have two data sources, an excel file and a connection database. I need to find a description ID in the excel file (table1), and paste it into the table database (table2).
Example:
The Excel file (table1):
+-------+---------------+----------------+
| Id | description1 | description2 |
+-------+---------------+----------------+
| 01:01 | soft | install soft |
| 12:04 | soft | uninstall soft |
+-------+---------------+----------------+
The connected database (table2):
+-------+---------+------+
| ID | group | name |
+-------+---------+------+
| 01:01 | IT | bob |
| 12:04 | Finance | joni |
+-------+---------+------+
This is what I want as output:
+-------+---------+------+--------------+----------------+
| ID | group | name | description1 | description2 |
+-------+---------+------+--------------+----------------+
| 01:01 | IT | bob | soft | install soft |
| 12:04 | Finance | joni | soft | uninstall soft |
+-------+---------+------+--------------+----------------+
How can I find this information using ID?
So to do this you should be able to connect both excel files to tableau. Therefore you will have two data sources. You then will form a relationship between the two sheets based on a common id, in this case it will be the field "ID". You can then drag in the pills you need to the shelf to form the table as above.
Connect both data excel data sources to workbook
Navigate to the sheet1 and you will see both data sources listed in the top left hand corner.
Select the first sheet and navigate to Data-> Edit Relationship(on the top menu bar)
Select the "custom" in the bullet menu
Select the add button, and in the pop window choose to link the data on ID to id
Select OK
Your data is now blended and you can drag in your fields from both data sources and get the results you listed.
Apologies for not sharing screen shots but I cant upload at the moment.

I'm trying to rescale a dataset in using PowerBI Desktop. I've imported a dataset full of raw data, but I can't use row context together with an aggregate. I'm trying to accomplish this:
Data:
+---------+-----+
| Name | Bar |
+---------+-----+
| Alfred | 0 |
| Alfred | -1 |
| Alfred | 1 |
| Burt | 1 |
| Burt | 0 |
| Charlie | 1 |
| Charlie | 1 |
| Charlie | 0 |
+---------+-----+
Calculations:
Foo: = SUM(Bar) / COUNT(Bar) GROUP BY Name
Which would Generate this dataset:
+---------+-----+
| Name | Foo |
+---------+-----+
| Alfred | 0 |
| Burt | .5 |
| Charlie | .67 |
+---------+-----+
Final Calculation:
Score: = (#Foo - MIN(Foo)) / (MAX(Foo)-MIN(Foo))
The goal is to grade on a curve with a set of data. I can do it in excel, but was hoping that Power BI could handle all the heavy lifting.
At this point it might be easier to do it all in SQL before bringing it into PowerBI, but that would make it significantly less dynamic (with date filters and the like). Thanks for any insight you might have!
I think you're looking for the GROUPBY DAX function. https://support.office.com/en-us/article/GROUPBY-Function-DAX-d6d064b2-fd8b-4c1b-97f8-c6d03cdf8ad0
You then would GROUPBY on the Name field and proceed from there. If need to use the measure outside of a visual that groups by each Name (like show me the average score after applying the curve), then you'll need to wrap that in a calculate table where you include the names, your measure projected as a column, and then do your aggregates (min/max/average) over that calculated table.
I am trying to get a list of hosts connected to a mysql server. How can i get this?
What should i do after connecting to the mysql server.
Code snippets will really help.
Also whats the best api to use to connect to mysql using c++?
One way you could do it is to execute the query show processlist, which will give you a table with Id, User, Host, db, Command, Time, State and Info columns. Remember that your show processlist query will be part of the output.
You can try this query: select distinct host from information_schema.processlist;
For example, there are multiple connections from 10.9.0.10 and one local connection.
mysql> select distinct host from information_schema.processlist;
+-----------------+
| host |
+-----------------+
| 10.9.0.10:63668 |
| 10.9.0.10:63670 |
| 10.9.0.10:63664 |
| 10.9.0.10:63663 |
| 10.9.0.10:63666 |
| 10.9.0.10:63672 |
| 10.9.0.10:63665 |
| 10.9.0.10:63671 |
| 10.9.0.10:63669 |
| 10.9.0.10:63667 |
| localhost |
| |
+-----------------+
12 rows in set (0,00 sec)
If you want only hosts (not different connections), you can try something like this: select distinct substring_index(host,':',1) from information_schema.processlist;
Example:
mysql> select distinct substring_index(host,':',1) from information_schema.processlist;
+-----------------------------+
| substring_index(host,':',1) |
+-----------------------------+
| 10.9.0.10 |
| localhost |
| |
+-----------------------------+
3 rows in set (0,00 sec)
You can see, that MySQL shows me one empty row, it is normal (i have a deamon process):
mysql> select distinct substring_index(host,':',1),`command` from information_schema.processlist;
+-----------------------------+---------+
| substring_index(host,':',1) | command |
+-----------------------------+---------+
| 10.9.0.10 | Sleep |
| localhost | Query |
| | Daemon |
+-----------------------------+---------+
You can remove it with where `command`!="Daemon" or where `host`!=''
And here is good link with query which also count connections from host and show which users are connected: http://blog.shlomoid.com/2011/08/how-to-easily-see-whos-connected-to.html
