I am trying to make significant changes to the source steps in my dataset, and then evaluate any changes seen in related thin reports.
Naturally I need to publish the new dataset to a new "sandbox" type workspace while preserving support for the "in production" report and then modify the thin report to use that new dataset as a live connection. How do I go about changing the data source for a copy of the thin report? I'm sure this has been covered somewhere in the forums, but the sheer number of "change data source" posts is overwhelming.
Thanks in advance.
Solved! Go to Solution.
I found the answer. Writing it here for other's convenience.
Transform Data dropdown -> Data source settings,
Then choose from available datasets.
Nothing like publicly sharing your difficulties for getting you to solve them yourself, right?
Guess I'll also accept it as a solution so the thread isn't active.
Thank you for sharing😀
