Changing Data Sources After Time

‎10-11-2017 12:01 PM

Good Afternoon Power BI Users,

 

I have come across a dilemna. Is there any way within Power BI or SQL where you can change data sources after a certain time.

 

For example, I have a graph that is displaying our company's inventory but I want that graph to pull data from one view at 7 am and then another view at 11 am. Is that at all possible to do without doing it manually? If not in Power BI, can it be done on the back end?

 

Thank You!

Perhaps this previous thread can help.  You may be able to accomplish your task using parameters to control the connection data source:
