Deployment pipeline parameter with Power Query

Hello,

 

I am trying to set the different data for my Test and Production environment in the same report. What I did was to create the Environment Parameter with values Staging and Production. As my data for different envs comes from the same database I applied the following steps to achieve this:

let
     environment = #"Environment",
     Source = Sql.Database("<server name>", "<database>"),
     schema = if environment = "Production" then "db_reporting_prod" else "db_reporting_stag",
     db_reporting_prod_user = Source{[Schema=schema,Item="app_user"]}[Data],
.....

 

For switching the environment in PowerBI desktop it works perfectly fine. But when I set Parameter rule Environment = Production in my Deployment Pipeline for Production environment, the data still appears to come from the default one which is Staging.

 

I feel like I did everything right and have no clue what is going on. I tried to refresh the dataset manually and it still shows staging data. Any ideas what is wrong here?

Thanks for your support 🙂

Ok, if anyone else has the same problem, you need to deploy it once again when you set the parameter rule.

Yes, you have to deploy it first, set the parameter rule, then redeploy for the rule to be executed.
