Hi @Anonymous

It seems you need to get the data by consuming SQL Server Stored Procedure, also SQL Server Stored Procedures has parameters which you need to pass dynamically.

There is a solution about execute Stored Procedure using Managed Parameters in Power BI.

But This feature will work only for Import Mode.

As for direct query mode, 

You may refer to the post below that makes use of OPENROWSET.

Hi @Anonymous

which does "UPDATECOME1_2" refer to?

If it is a column name, you need change as below:

Query="select [1] from Order1"

select columnname from tablename

If error insists, could you share the screenshot with me for better analysis?

Best Regards

Maggie
