Parameters not working with DataSource

‎05-18-2018 04:02 AM

Hi, I want to use parameters to switch between my datasources. So i created two parameters Servername and Databasename which has server and Database values. However, when I go to DataSource Setting and map Server and Database to my parameters and click ok, it do not bring the corresponding selected value but rather brings up the parameter name itself which leads to error during refresh.

 

Thanks in advance 1.PNG2.PNG

@Shubham21,

 

The latest version of Power BI Desktop seems to work for me. You may also check The Advanced Editor.
