I must be missing something that's right in front of me.
I have two tables. I want the user to click on the URL in table one and have the parameter picks the clicked ReportURL and filter the second table using that chosen URL
Now I have a parameter created as text named "Page", and that parameter is embedded into the code on the "Device datalake table. A snippit of the code " AND ReportURL like '%" & @Page & "%'" & "
The table is by default, filtering by the default value set up in the Page parameter. So I know the code is working as expected.
Ideally i want the user to click on the selection on the table and/or a slicer and whatever they clic, the parameter picks up on it and details are visible based on selection.
Problem is that anything the user chooses is ignored. How do I create what I need so that any click from the user changes the value so the second table is filtered? That's the part I'm stuck on.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Steven
@Anonymous , if two tables are connected it will filter.
or you have to use measure in visual or visual level filter
Measure = Countrows(Filter('Data Intake', 'Data Intake'[Report URL] in values(WCMS[Report URL]) ) )
or use treatas https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dax/treatas-function
Thanks for the response. However, it seems to me that none of those things listed seem to force the query to update, myabe I'm missing something?
When I track the parameter after i click on a different value, the value in the parameter that I set as default, doesn't change, whether I connect the tables in the data model or not.
