Hi CarlaGh ,
You need to create a parameter that would point on your database (Power Query), then save your report as a power bi model (pbit), after that whenever you will open that pbit file you will be asked to paste the database path.
You have to make sure that the credentials used on the prod database are the same as the dev otherwise you would need to create parameters also for them.
