Dynamic column name
By passing parameters and renaming using power query, I am setting the column name dynamically:
#"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(ModelOutput1,{{"Dimension1", Dimension1}, {"Dimension2", Dimension2}})However visuals associated with this column name are giving error if I change the parameter value (from what was its initial value):
Is there a way that I can use parameters for a column name and still have the column consumed in a visual?
No, thats not possible.
The column name is the identifier of your column. Different name -> different column. The data model has no idea/connection to what has been done in the query editor.
