data exchange use filters and add reference parameters
- 2 months ago
Hi and thank you for the reply. None of these methods have worked unfortunatly. I will just choose transform data and choose columns in power query.
Thanks for reaching out to Fabric Community and sharing the screenshot.
Here are a few suggestions to help troubleshoot the issue:
- Ensure you're using the latest Autodesk Data Exchange Power BI connector. If you're using a custom connector (.mez/.pqx), replace it in Documents\Power BI Desktop\Custom Connectors and restart Power BI Desktop.
- Create a new PBIX and connect via Get Data > Autodesk Data Exchange. The "Use filters and add reference parameters" option is only evaluated when the connector is first invoked.
- Verify File > Options and settings > Options > Security and ensure data extensions are allowed, then restart Power BI Desktop.
- Test with a different or simple Data Exchange to determine whether the issue is specific to one exchange.
Based on your screenshot, Power BI detects the Data Exchange, but the expected parameter selection dialog isn't appearing before the Navigator opens. If the issue persists after the above checks, it may be a connector-specific issue. In that case, I'd recommend contacting Autodesk Support and providing your Power BI Desktop version, Autodesk Data Exchange Connector version, Revit Data Exchange version, and a short screen recording of the connection process.
Thank you,
