Execute query B based on a table selection thats fed by query A

Hi,

Apologies if what im trying to do doesnt make sense. Im new to this and im currently trying to figure out a navigation based functionality.

My usecase is as follows: query A gets executed and data is displayed in a table to the user. Upon selecting a row, a value from it( i.e. ID) is sent to query B. When a row is selected, a button or anything could trigger a data reload on a new page and show the results there.

Short question is: how do I sent data from a dynamic table to a query?

Thank you

Hi @cpi91 

In import mode, changes made in the report do not affect the underlying query. The query shapes the semantic model and report, but not the other way around.

 

In DirectQuery, Power BI dynamically sends queries to the database whenever a user interacts with visuals. It converts selections and DAX calculations into SQL (or equivalent) queries, retrieves only the necessary data, and updates the report in real time.

 

For your use case, you can achieve navigation-based functionality by using drill-through pages or dynamic filtering with slicers. When a user selects a row, the selected value (e.g., ID) can be passed to another visual or page using cross-filtering or you can also sync a slicer across different pages.

But could that selected value be passed to an API query?

Have to be using Direct Query

 

Why not have all the data in the model and just use drill through to apply filters to another page
