Parameter description doesn't save
Hello,
everytime I try to set the description of a Parameter it'll be deletet after saving the dataset.
Is there any solution for this?
Kind regards!
Also dataflow online is working for me when I enter a parameter description.

Hi rseufertNUBI,
my description does get saved. Can you explain a little bit more what steps you took and what happened?
Are you setting the description in the Query Editor?

Hi nickyvv !
Thank you for the quick response.
I can't understand it!
I do the parameter description just as in your picture.
I even tryed, creating a new parameter and give a description from the start to it but every time i reopen my dataset, the description is gone..
-- I DO save the settings ;D- nickyvvMost Valuable ProfessionalrseufertNUBI,
With dataset you mean the PBIX-file, right?
I also tried closing my PBIX and re-opening it, but it still saved my description.
Are you using the latest version of Power BI Desktop? I suggest installing that.
If it still persists, then I suggest you create a support ticket on https://support.powerbi.com.

No, i mean power BI online! I don't have any trouble with the parameter description of the desktop version.- nickyvvMost Valuable Professional
Can you let me know where exactly you are trying to do that? Is it in the dataflow Query editor?
[edit] It is working for me in dataflows.
Because in edit mode of a report you can't edit or add parameters.
