Field Parameters Equivalent with Live Connection
I have a large transaction level sales data cube which has a live connection to Power BI Desktop.
I want to build in easy buttons for end users to change the dimensions they see their sales data e.g. by Customer, Brand, Product Group, Department, Segment etc.
I know field parameters works with data import connection but not with a live connection.
I was wondering if anyone has a nice work around where I can create buttons for the user to switch between dimensions they see their sales or other measures broken up by?
