Power BI – Sync Slicers
Power BI ‘Sync Slicer’ synchronized the all pages where this filter or slicer have been
applied. This new feature added in February 2018 update of Power BI Desktop.
Its also reduce the round trip query, that means each slicer query hit the database two
times, once at the time page load and second when you select any value from slicer.
Let’s start with an example:
Suppose, you have 15 to 20 pages in your report and you are interested to see result of
particular category of products in all pages, so in that case you have to selected same
category one by one in all pages to see the result and it is time consuming process.
So in that situation, sync slicers help us to synchronized same slicer selected value to all
pages where you applied this.
Let’s get started-
Suppose you have two page in your report, see below images for your reference-
Page 1: Refer below image for Page 1 visual details.
Power BI Report Page-1
Page 2: Refer below image for Page 2 visual details.
Power BI Report Page-2
Now enable Sync Slicers, follow these steps:
Step-1: Open Page 1.
Step-2: Go to View tab and click on Sync slicers.
Step-3: After that select Year slicer, after that Sync slicers screen appears in right side
as shown in below screen shot. Now check the Sync for Page 1 & Page 2.
Enable Sync slicers in Power BI
It has following three options:
o Add and sync with all pages: Allow slicer to be synced in every page of report.
o Visible: Allow slicer to be visible in selected Page.
o Sync: Allow slicer to be synced in selected Page. (Slicer is not visible, but it is synced).
Step-4: Now Select any year in Page 1 and Sync slicer synchronized the Page
1 selected slicer value into Page 2 slicers, you don’t need to select slicer value on Page
2.

Cardinality of Relationship in Power BI
by Power BI Docs
Power BI
The cardinality of the relationship means having unique or multiple instances per value
for the joining field between two tables.
Cardinality defined by the relationship and it refers to the relationship between two
tables.
Types of Cardinality are- Many to one (*:1), One to one (1:1), One to many (1:*) &
Many to many (*:*)
Understand Cardinality of Relationship in Power BI-
Consider following two tables-
Sample datasets in Power BI
Many to one (*:1): A many-to-one relationship means, the column in a given table can
have more than one instance of a value, and the other related table has only one
instance of a value.
* : Table contains more than one instance of a value.
1: Table contains only one instance of a value
Many to one relationship
Now open relationship in edit mode, double click on relationship line and you can see
the cardinality.
Relationship many to one
One to many (1:*): In a one-to-many relationship, the column in one table has only one
instance of a particular value, and the other related table can have more than one
instance of a value.
One-to-one (1:1): In a one-to-one relationship, the column in one table has only one
instance of a particular value, and the other related table has only one instance of a
particular value.
1: Both table contains only one instance of a value
Many to many (*:*): With composite models, you can establish a many-to-many
relationship between tables, which removes requirements for unique values in tables.
Composite model: Allows two or more data connections, including DirectQuery
connections or Import mode.
* : Both table contains more than one instance of a value.

DAX USERPRINCIPALNAME – Use in RLS
by Power BI Docs
DAX
DAX USERPRINCIPALNAME function returns the user name of currently logged user.
This DAX function is use in RLS for authorization, using this user only can see their own
data.
It returns different result- In Power BI desktop it returns name of PC(domain\user) and
in Power BI service returns the login email of currently logged user.
Syntax:
USERPRINCIPALNAME()
Copy
Parameter:
This expression has no parameters.
Let’s get started-
Load below sample dataset into Power BI desktop-
Table: Products
Product Sales Name Email
Now follow these steps-
Step-1: Create a measure for UPN.
UPN = USERPRINCIPALNAME()
Copy
Step-2: Add one card visual into report and drag measure over it. Now you can see here
at desktop level it returns the domain with PC name.
UPN
Step-3: After that add one table visual into Report page with some columns.
Dataset example
Step-4: Suppose user want to see only their sales data, so for that you have to create a
role to using USERPRINCIPALNAME() DAX.
Go to Modeling Tab >Manage roles > Click on create
Manage Role
Step-5: After that follow these steps-
Manage Role
Step-6: Now it will filter table data based on email id of user, and
USERPRINCIPALNAME() DAX returns the logged user id in Power BI service.
[Email] = USERPRINCIPALNAME()
Copy
UPN DAX function in Mange roles
Step-7: Publish report into Power BI service.
Step-8: After publish you have to create a role for users. So in dataset we have one user
with name User 1, so we will create role for that user.
Find your dataset in Power BI service and click on ellipse icon > Security
Power BI service dataset
Step-9: Enter user mail id > Click on Add button > Save
Roles in Power BI Service
How to check roles are working or not?
If you are admin or Author of report you will see all data when you opens the report, so
in that case if you want to see only your sales data follow these steps-
Click on ellipse icon > Test role as
Test role in Power BI service
Now login from user 1 account and checked it is working or not-
UPN in Power BI service
So you can see in above screen shot it is showing only logged-In user data.

Filter Context and Row Context in Power
BI
by Power BI Docs
Power BI
Mainly there are two types of evaluation context in DAX and they are : Filter context &
Row context.
Filter Context:
The filter context is the set of filters applied to the data model before the evaluation of a
DAX expression starts. Filter Context always exist before a DAX expression been
evaluated.
Some initial level filters context applied on Power BI report page in form of:-
1. Slicer
2. Filter through other Visual
3. In Matrix visual based on Row and column data fields
4. Power BI filters
Filter Context in Power Bi
Row Context:
A Row context is evaluated whenever an expression iterates over a table. Each individual
row in a table has its own row context.
A row context exists in either a calculated column or an iterating DAX functions such as
SUMX, AVERAGEX, FILTER & ADDCOLUMNS etc.
If you have created a calculated column, the row context consists of the values in each
individual row and values in columns that are related to the current row.
Example:-
To calculate the Total Sales the Qty should be multiplied by the Sales of each category,
in a new calculated column TotalSales.
As you know calculated column perform row by row calculation( row context), so you
can see the result in below screen shot.
Row context in Power BI
Filter Context and Row Context in same DAX
formula
Sample dataset as below:-
Region Category Sales Qty
A A1 4 2
A A2 4 3
A A3 2 1
B B1 5 3
B B2 10 2
B B3 5 1
Step-1: Create a measure and write below DAX
Total Sales =
SUMX( FILTER('Product', 'Product'[Region]="A") ,
'Product'[Sales] * 'Product'[Qty])Copy
It is filtering the table for each row where Region is “A” and multiplying sales with
quantity.
Step-2: Drag new measure into Table visual to see the final output. It will return the
value only for Region “A” with specified condition.
