Hi Ankit,
Is it possible to get an example on how to create a database connecion parameter . Thanks
see this
I was looking for it too
Finally made it myself
@Rahulsingh What you want to do is in powerbi desktop create two parameters that contains server and database name for your databases (i am guessing you have sql server database). Then create all your reports from first database in powerbi desktop and save that as powerbi template file (.pbit). Next when you open that template file it will ask you for values for those parameters and you can enter in that for all other databases. By this you won't have to create seperate pbix for each database and you can use just one template file for all your databases.
Hope it make sense.

You just need to create a query parameter and populate it with database name, then use this parameter in source Power Query. See screenshots below:

I'm in a similar situation,
what I want is to do is to read tables from the different database on Azure, and then, for example, calculate the net profit for a period from all database.
can u post a guide how to do that?

If you want one report where you can select the data you want then all the data has to be in one data model ...
The nice thing is once you've built this you'll never have to build it again - this is you being nice to your future self 🙂
You'll then append all the queries together => could i ask more, in case append it, how about database size? is this double?
