I would like to be able to use the Current Report Name in DAX measures so I can apply different DAX code depending on the report. Therefor I will be able to create one measure but set different filters in the measure depending on the report name.

RE: DAX Current report name

Would really like this feature also, that way I don't have to automatically update the name of the report in two places (the tab name and also in the actual report)

RE: DAX Current report name

Agreed - this would be really useful! I didn't see this idea until AFTER posting a similar one, for getting report name and page name.

RE: DAX Current report name

Very surprised this idea gets so few votes. DAX currently provides NO report context information such as report name, current page name etc. Except perhaps the user name. The report context will be very useful in customizing reports.
