Snowflake Dynamic Query failed

Here is the code. The error I got is 

 

Expression.Error: We cannot convert a value of type Record to type Text.
Details:
Value=[Record]
Type=[Type]

 

I am trying to create a dynamic query where i can use a filter in the PowerBI UI to determine what dates i am returning from snowflake. Thanks!

 

let
    selectedDates = if Type.Is(Value.Type(DateMParameter), List.Type) then 
      Text.Combine({"'", Text.Combine(DateMParameter, "','") , "'"})
    else
      Text.Combine({"'" , DateMParameter , "'"}),

    selectAllCountries = if Type.Is(Value.Type(DateMParameter), List.Type) then 
      List.Contains(DateMParameter, "__SelectAll__")
    else
      false,

    query = "SELECT #(lf)*#(lf)#(lf)FROM LANDING.HIDDEN.POWERBIPROJECTSUMMARY",

    dynamicFilter = if selectAllDates then " "
                    else  Text.Combine({" WHERE Date in(", selectedDate, ")"}),

    finalQuery = Text.Combine({query, dynamicFilter}),

    Source = Value.NativeQuery(Snowflake.Databases("HIDDEN.southeast-asia.azure.snowflakecomputing.com","POWERBI_WH"){[Name="LANDING"]}[Data], [Query=finalQuery], null, [EnableFolding=true])

Hi @Anonymous,

 

The issue will probably be related with DateMParameter.. Can you provide it's query and/or results?


Best regards,
