Using textbox input in Sql source Query possible?

‎05-25-2023 01:12 PM

Hi All :), 

 

I have a sql query that is connected to sql database server. 
I have a sql code that runs on a refresh but I want I want to build a tool out of it that restricts the code to whatever order number the user is looking for information about. 

 

I feel like this is not a thing in PowerBI but is there anyway a dax code in advanced editor can reference a textbox that is on the dashboard that a user has inputed a order number too.

Hi @shahid_tanmoy00 ,

 

Using textbox seems impossible. However, you can use parameters to dynamically change data source. Please refer to

How to Parameterize Data Sources in Power BI | phData

Change the Source of Power BI Datasets Dynamically Using Power Query Parameters - RADACAD
