Switch environments from dashboard
Hi,
Please tell me how to switch reports to different environments like dev, test, prod from the dashboard main page.
Thanking you in anticipation.
Hi ssnegi1971,
Unfortunately, Power BI doesn't support dynamic switching of data sources at runtime via slicers. Slicers only filter data that’s already loaded, not the data source itself.

What do you mean by switch environment? Change the connection in the semantic model to different databases? Reconnect a report to a different semantic model?
And are you taking about a dashboard or report?
If a report is fetching data from DEV tables I require a slicer on the dashboard page that can make it select data from PROD tables or any other environment in the slicer.

Suppose a report is fetching data from DEV tables and I want to change the slicer on the dashboard page to fetch data from PROD. That is my query.
That is not possible
