Hello,
For a pbi with datasource mode Import, I'am able to change the Username and Password but not able to change ConnectionString.
For my test
If I only change DataModelDataSource\Username and DataModelDataSource\Password its OK (200)
If I change ConnectionString its 400 Bad Request
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous ,
I think you can use PowerShell to change the data source connection string in a Power BI report, but only if the report uses parametric connections, otherwise the change is not supported.
Install the Reporting Services tool in powershell and change its parameters. Refer to the following official documentation for a detailed description of the steps.
Change data source connection strings in Power BI reports with PowerShell - Power BI Report Server
If the problem is still not resolved, please point it out and provide related operation screenshoots. Looking forward to your feedback.
Best Regards,
Henry

Hello
Thanks for the quit reply.
It works fine with ReportingServicesTools.
Set-RsRestItemDataModelParameters for Server and Database parameters
Set-RsRestItemDataSource for Login and Password
