Adding Large Dataflow Entities To Dataset
yes, deployment pipelines allow you to parameterize the date sources. It is preferable to have data sources that support query folding.
Another option for you would be to evaluate mixed storage mode with aggregations.
lbendlinthanks for your assistance with this topic. Really appreciated
Based on our discussion so far, I take it that there's no way to get data from an extremely large Dataflows Entity directly into PBI Desktop?
I also just came across the deployment pipelines feature. I haven't used this feature before. Can I change the Dataflow that a dataset points to in the different stages (Dev, Test, and Prod)? If so, I can build a dataflow that uses a small subset of the original full dataflow and use that for Dev/Test, then just change the datasource to the full dataflow in Prod.
If all else fails, I'll take the dataset approach.

I'll try the deployment pipeline to solve this problem. Thanks again for your assistance.
