can I change the data source from test to production database in PowerBI desktop?

‎08-28-2015 04:01 PM

I defined the power queris using the test database in powerBI desktop. I'd like change the data source to point to the production database. I used the way from 'File->Options and Settings -> Data Source Settings'. But I can only change the Credentials without being able to change it to a different database. Are there anyways we change the data source definition just like the one we used in Powerpivot inside Excel?

You have to edit your query and edit the first line of your query "Source" So, "Edit Queries", choose your query, next to Source step, click the gear icon.
