Hi,
I am trying to use incremental refresh, setup two parameters and fields with datetime format, but still can not enable, any ideas?
@naivecalf , check the datatype of the parameter it should be DateTime.
check these for reference

Hi @naivecalf
Incremental refresh has limitations on only some DBs, doesn't work on all of them.
Please go through the document throughly before making it as an option.

@Anonymous ,
thanks for replay, I tried excel table and sharepoint online list, looks they are not supported.
Regards
Steven
Hi, tried sharepoint online list again, it is working now. just make sure the field is data/time, not date. thanks.
Hi @naivecalf
PBI team is working on expanding it but right now only hand full of MS Db are supported
