Power BI: "To use special characters in a column name..."

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 3,510

Hi:

I'm trying to create a new column using the following formula:

IF ({dimensionValues[dimension]} IN {dimensionValues[Facility]}, {dimensionValues[display name]})

But, I receive the following error:

To use special characters in a column name, enclose the entire name in brackets []....

Facility is currently another column.  But, I'd like to replace it with a column containing the name of the facility (i.e., the display name).

So, how do I fix this?

    I figured this out.  I simply needed to pull from a different web service object.
