Using cmdlets to change SSAS connection in report

Hello World!

I need a feature which I think isn't available, but I might be wrong.

I want to use the Power BI cmdlets to repoint the datasource to a different database in the SQL Server Analysis Services.

What I want to do is this:

1. Use the cmdlets to import the Power BI reports from the Dev App Workspace to a local temp folder.

2. Repoint the Reports from Dev to Test database.

3. Export the reports to the Test App Workspace.

 

The resources for points 1 and 3 were available in the forum and I was able to do it. I need point 2 because parameterization is not supported for Live connections. Is Point 2 possible in Powershell? Is there any other way to make this work?

 

Thanks
