    Hi @ashutoshgaurav according to my experience with cubes expressions in measures contains other measures not attributes. In your expression date1_item and date2_item are not defined as measures. (Cubes do not directly get data from relevant column in fact table. You have to define two another measures for them.)

    "measures": [ {"name":"date1_item"}, {"name":"date2_item"}, {"name":"duration", "label":"Duration", "expression": "date1_item - `date2_item"} ]
