M Query dynamic Parameter - Filtering on query based on another query

Hi, 

 

I have a table Table 1 in a Snowflake DB that contains the control columns like role, database, schema. I want to query this table, fetch the  database, schema information. store it in different parameters (dbparam, schemaparam). 

 

Then I want to retrieve Table 2 information with Dyanamic M Query using the databaseparam and schemaparam set in the param values. 

 

For this, I setup the first M Query datasource to fetch Table 1 value. 

 

I have created the 2 parameters. 

 

However, I am not able to get the Table 1 database and schema column values to influence the 2 parameters. 

 

Pls advice how this can be done. 

 

Regards

Vicha

On your second point. I just wanted to say somehting i missed.

 

I have set up an RLS based on which the Table 1 is filtered and selected. There is no slicer. 

 

I don't think RLS and dynamic parameters are compatible.

Sounds like you missed a couple of steps

 

- bind the parameters to their respective columns

- make sure that both columns are set up as single select slicers.

- create a native query with folding enabled that utilizes these parameters.
