Hi @Minakshi ,

 

Data source rules will be grayed out if you're not the owner of the Power BI item you're creating a rule for, or if your Power BI item doesn't contain any data sources.

Rules for dataflows that have other dataflows as sources, are not supported.

Data source rules for common data model (CDM) folders in a dataflow, are not supported.

Rules for datasets that use dataflows as their source, are not supported.

Data source rules can only be defined for the following data sources:

  • Azure Analysis Services

  • Azure Synapse

  • SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS)

  • Azure SQL Server

  • SQL server

  • Odata Feed

  • Oracle

  • SapHana (only supported for import mode; not direct query mode)

  • SharePoint

  • Teradata

For more details please check the document.

Best Regards,

Jay
