Can USERPRINCIPALNAME be applied in Powquery so that a User only views the database that correspond?

[TonyRojas]

Created 1 query to get the parameters of a user table called T_Usuarios. This user table T_Usuarios, has the columns: [IdUser], [Stage], [Server] and [NameDataBase]. How do you apply USERPRINCIPALNAME in Power Query, to be able to connect the user with the database that they should have access to?
Query to get parameters:

let

    // Usar la tabla importada desde Excel llamada T_Usuarios

    Usuarios = T_Usuarios,

    // Reemplazar por el nombre de usuario actual para pruebas locales

    CurrentUser = USERPRINCIPALNAME(), // Simulación para pruebas en Power BI Desktop

    UserRecord = Table.SelectRows(Usuarios, each [Name] = CurrentUser){0},

    varStage = UserRecord[Stage],

    varServer = UserRecord[Server],

    varDatabaseName = UserRecord[Nombre de la base de datos]

in

    [

        txtStage = varStage,

        txtServer = varServer,

        txtDatabaseName = varDatabaseName

    ]

My solution works.

I've set something up like this. First, you have to have A data model set up in order to use the userprincipalname function. So I just made a table with today's date that loaded to the date model. Then I added the userprincipalname function to the data model, and loaded the result to a page in Excel. I then used that cell with the user principal name as the source of a new query, which you can then use as a filter/parameter/whatever you like. It's important that you set that query to load upon opening the file, so that the current user's user principal name is ready when you refresh the rest of the data.

No, USERPRINCIPALNAME() is a DAX function that is not available during the ETL (data load) process in Power Query.

If your data source is a SSAS type live connection then it is possible to pass credentials through.
