Dynamic query parameters multi-value

Hello

 

I have a direct query facts table that I filter using single valued parameters for start and end date. That works fine, and I would like now to filter my table using a multi-valued parameter. I tried to filter using  [Dimension] = parameter in the M query, but that does not work for multi-valued parameter. If I choose List.Contains ({Parameter},[Dimension]) I also get an error message "We vouldn't fold the expression...". Any idea on the correct syntax for filtering the table? 

Thanks

If Parameter is a list, then you don't want to wrap it in another set of {}. Maybe try just

List.Contains(Parameter, [Dimension])

Hi @fduperier 

 

How do you want to apply the multi-valued parameter to query the fact table? Suppose you have multiple start dates and multiple end dates, data in which date periods should be brought into Power BI?
