Error: "Before you can set up incremental refresh on this table, you need to set up parameters"

I've read other posts similar to mine and have not figured out what I'm doing wrong.

 

My parameters and the column are all Date/Time:

KABPH_2-1716404090886.png

And I saw a post where you have to go into the Options and make sure a setting was selected -- I don't have that setting:

I am a Pro user, but according to this I should have the ability to do incremental refresh as a Pro user:  Incremental refresh for semantic models and real-time data in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

 

I don't understand what I'm doing wrong...

When I went through my setup with a friend, we figured out that the issue was that I was applying the parameters in a different query than where I was attempting to set up the Incremental Refresh.

Thanks for the reply from @lbendlin , please allow me to provide another insight: 

 

Hi  @KAB-PH ,

Incremental refresh configuration requires the data source to support query folding, check whether your data source supports query folding.

You can review the following documentation to help you determine if the data source and query support query folding

Understanding query evaluation and query folding in Power Query - Power Query | Microsoft Learn

Query folding guidance in Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

Your setup looks clean.  Can you reproduce the issue in a fresh power BI file?
