How to change the dataset on desktop

Hello,

 

I have my report ready and now I would like to use this report with another dataset.  

Also, is it possible to connect 2 or more dataset on the same report ? 

 

How do I do that knowing the fact that I am using the power bi desktop (my computer is a mac...)  ?

 

Thanks you for your help

@Anonymous , If you create a report of dataset, you can change it using Home Tab -> Transform Data -> Data Source setting  -> Change source.

 

If you want to use two datasets (Power bi dataset), you need to use a direct query connection

Hello @Anonymous ,

 

In order to change the dataset sources, you need to have Power BI Desktop and you can follow the steps provided by @amitchandak.

But the problem is that you have a Mac, and Power BI Desktop is only available on Windows
