I follow the below-mentioned method to stitch between different DBs environments i.e. DEV, Test, Prod.Before creating the report, I import all the tables which are necessary by default approach i.e
Get Data > Snowflake > Enter the URL > Warehouse Name.
After importing all necessary tables. I create 3 parameters
1. Server Name (ServerName)
2. Data warehouse (DWH)
3. Database Name (DB)
Select Advance Editor for any table and replace the code as mentioned below
Before:
let
Source = Snowflake.Databases("XXXXXXXXXXXX.snowflakecomputing.com","extralarge"),
XX_XX_DEV_Database = Source{[Name="XX_XX_DEV",Kind="Database"]}[Data],
Your_Schema = NAME_OF_Database{[Name="XX",Kind="Schema"]}[Data],
TABLE_NAME_YOU_IMPORTED = Your_Schema{[Name="TABLE_NAME_YOU_IMPORTED",Kind="View"]}[Data]
in
TABLE_NAME_YOU_IMPORTEDAfter:
let
Source = Snowflake.Databases(ServerName, DWH, [CreateNavigationProperties=null, ConnectionTimeout=null, CommandTimeout=null]),
Database = Source{[Name=DB,Kind="Database"]}[Data], // XX_XX_DEV_Database changed to Database, XX_XX_DEV changed to DB
Your_Schema = Database{[Name="XX",Kind="Schema"]}[Data], // Just use the word Database don't change it
TABLE_NAME_YOU_IMPORTED = Your_Schema{[Name="TABLE_NAME_YOU_IMPORTED",Kind="View"]}[Data]
in
TABLE_NAME_YOU_IMPORTEDNo need to make any changes in line number 4; I just gave you for reference.
You need to do the above things in each table for the first time only. When ever you want to change the database or server name just go to parameters which you created and switch them.
Let me know if this is helpful.
