How to use parameters in Power BI

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I have created two parameters named StartingDate and EndingDate.  A list of values is associated to each parameter.

When I import data from a sql table the following script is used.

select *

From Database1.TableA

Where FiscalPeriod between 200601 and 200612

This script works fine. But I would like to know how I can replace those two values for StartingDate and EndingDate.

Thanks in advance for your help

Hi alepage

Try this

select *

From Database1.TableA

Where FiscalPeriod between @StartingDate and @EndingDate

So, there are a lot of information like this https://blog.crossjoin.co.uk/2016/12/11/passing-parameters-to-sql-queries-with-value-nativequery-in-...

Anyway, you can use parameter as a filter option which is pretty good described here https://powerbi.microsoft.com/ru-ru/blog/deep-dive-into-query-parameters-and-power-bi-templates/
