    Hi all,

     

    I have now solved and hope this can help others. The problem is related to my report that had both dataset and visuals in the same PBIX file. Originally t was split in two separate PBIX (Dataset and report) that I later merged into a single PBIX. In this way the textbox visual couldn't see the columns and the measures of my model even if they were in the same file. Now that I have separated semantic model and report (as best practice is teaching) everything works correctly. In essence your report has to be "connected live" to you data model in order dynamic values can be retrieved:

    Hope this helps.

     

    Regards,

    C.

I am also experiencing this issue. Dynamic values and Q&A no longer work after the November 2023 update, but only on one specific .pbix file. This issue has persisted into the December 2023 update. It's incredibly frustrating because I need to add new dynamic values into this report, and now have no option but to recreate the entire report in another report.

 

Dynamic values and Q&A work perfectly in every single report - both new and old - except this one!
