Move from import to direct query

Question

Hi,&nbsp;I'm using dataflows and never thought there was a direct query option for dataflows.I want to now change it from import to direct query by hook or by crook.&nbsp;I know import mode can't be changed.If it can't be changed, how can i rebuild my dashboards again?

"can't be changed"&nbsp; is a strong phrase.&nbsp; If you are willing to poke the .pbix file then you can flip the setting there.

I'm willing to do that. Do you know about the setting?&nbsp;

before you go there, read this article and decide if that's a safer approach for you
