In Power BI, while accessing a cube through a live connection, how can I change the date format?

@BI-Newbie , In live connection, you do not have control at the Power Bi-level. You need to fix the format at source.

 

However, you can change properties at the visual level, visual allows option line format -> none, Auto, Thousand, etc and decimal place.
