Flow with a parameter defined in Power BI

Good morning,

 

I would like to create a flow in Power Automate where I need a parameter that comes from Power BI. Is there a way to do it without using PowerApps? 


Thanks in advance.

  • You can use the HTTP action in Flow to run a DAX query against a Power BI dataset. Not sure if that is what you are referring to.

      I think what he means (also my problem) is that he has a flow that creates a paginated power bi export file and wants to use his parameters so he can filter the data sent in the export. 

      Right now in the flow it asks for the name of the parameter and the value from inside the parameter. Whatever I type in I get the error back that it cannot find the parameter name.

      There are so workarounds by using the powerapps or variables functions and just a fix to what I said above.

      Not sure if he means this but I would love a way out of this error too!

      Parameters: 

      In power automate error: RootActivityId(5d396ce6-6fd6-4b43-a611-42674a475595): One of the supplied report parameter names does not exist.
