Hello,
I'm doing tests with the App-Owns-Data Starter Kit package and following the video tutorial, it seems to work fine although there is a part that I don't fully understand.
When I create a new tenant, by default it takes me a pbix (I try to change it but it gives me an error) but the issue is that when creating, by default, and I don't know what it means, I have:
Database Server Name: devcamp.database.windows.net
Database Name: It gives me a choice between four (I don't know where it comes from)
And a database name/password
Could you briefly explain to me where it gets all that from and how to pass it to my data?
Thanks.
Hi @apenaranda ,
It's important to understand how this PBIX template allows the developer to update the database server and database name after the import operation has created the Sales dataset in the Power BI Service. Click Transform Data to open the Power Query Editor window and then click the Manage Parameters button.
Please refer to:
Best Regards,
Liang

Hello,
I don't quite understand what you mean.
What I wanted to ask is what is the use of the database they put (devcamp.database.windows.net)? Is a database simply to register the tenants that are created?
In my case, I have a pbix where I collect the data but I have the reports in other different pbix. How can I tell the code to give me the option to choose the desired pbix report?
Thanks.
