    Hi Ashok_Gopeani,

    The error ORA-00936 typically occurs in Oracle databases and indicates a missing expression in your SQL query. This error is often caused by an incomplete or improperly structured SQL query.

     

    In Oracle, parameters are typically referred to with a colon (:) before the parameter name, unlike SQL Server which uses @. So, change @cmrunid to :cmrunid for Oracle.

     

    • In Power BI Report Builder, after creating the parameter (cmrunid), make sure that it is mapped correctly to the query. Oracle expects the parameter to be prefixed with a colon (:).

    • Make sure that the Data Type of the parameter matches the Data Type of cm_run_id in the database (e.g., if cm_run_id is a string in the database, set your parameter data type to Text).

    Try using 

    SELECT *
    FROM table_name
    WHERE cm_run_id = :cmrunid
