Prompt in a Power BI

Hi there,

 

can I set in a power bi report a prompt in order to set a date ?

I want to use it in order to define the limit date to my calculations (ytd, mtd, etc).

 

It is possible at run time ask this to the user ?

 

Thanks in advance

You can't really set a prompt in the sense that the report would wait for the prompt to be filled out before running.

 

But you could drag on your date field and set it as a slicer so that the users can change the filter at run time.
