What is the method to change seconds into the hh:mm format in Power Bi?

edit

There are several ways to convert seconds into hh:mm format in Power BI, but one common method is to use the "Duration" data type and format the output using the "Time" data type. Here are the steps:

1. Create a new column in your dataset and name it something like "Duration (Seconds)".

2. Convert your time or duration data into seconds using a mathematical formula, such as:

   Duration (Seconds) = [Duration (Minutes)] * 60

   or

   Duration (Seconds) = [Duration (Hours)] * 3600

3. Change the data type of your "Duration (Seconds)" column to "Duration" by selecting the column and going to the "Modeling" tab in the ribbon, then selecting "Data Type" > "Duration".

4. Create a new calculated column or measure and name it something like "Duration (hh:mm)". Use the following formula:

   Duration (hh:mm) = FORMAT([Duration (Seconds)], "hh:mm")

5. Ensure that the data type of your "Duration (hh:mm)" column or measure is set to "Time" by selecting the column or measure and going to the "Modeling" tab in the ribbon, then selecting "Data Type" > "Time".

6. Finally, drag and drop your "Duration (hh:mm)" column or measure onto a table or chart in your report to display the data in hh:mm format.
