Power Automate Flow Button to a Power BI report from another environment

From Power BI, I am trying to use Flow to update a table from Environment B within Dataverse. My Default environment is Environment A. Is it possible to change environments in Power BI to create a flow within Environment B or is it possible to use an "Update a Row" and select the environment? The current "Update a Row" in Dataverse option only shows tables from environment A (see image).

Thank you for your response.

 

I am not sure where the binding happens. When I open Power BI, before bringing in any data, I click the power automate Visualilzation and click "edit", it automatically puts me in the default environment (environment A). I reached out to a colleague. He says we can update the database with an HTTP request. If there is no simple way Microsoft has created to select an environment, I will us the HTTP request and JSON.

Hi @DerekCook0814,

I think these operations should related to the settings that you applied in previous steps.

If you want to update the environment B tables, you should change the binding before update operations.

BTW, you can also take a look at the following document about environment variable helps with your scenario:
