Parameter unable to change when using Append Queries (multiple db sources)

Hi everyone

 

I've design and publish a report that get data through SQL with PowerBI parameters from different db and using PowerBI Append queries combine into one table.
I got error When I try to change parameters on PowerBI Online.

 

Does anybody know is this an limitation on PowerBI or Have another way to solve this problem?

 

I need to design a report with two requirements on PowerBI.
1. Combine serval database tables (with different db connection) into one table.
2. Parameterized queries when refresh data on PowerBI Online.

 

I will explain my design in detail below.


I created 2 parameters, all text and required.
parameters


I connect 2 sources, one from MySQL, another from SQL Server and both have parameter in SQL.

1. MySQL
Query_MySQL
Query_MySQL_Data


2. SQLServer
Query_SQLServer
Query_SQLServer_Data


I combine 2 queries by using Append Queries as new.
Append
The data is now combine perfectly into one Table.
Append_Data


After publish to PowerBI Online.
I've also setup on-permises gateway.
on_permises_gateway
And data refresh is no problem.
refresh_history

Finally I want to change parameter and refresh on PowerBI Online.

online_parameters

Change parameter values

online_parameters_change

it shows error when click update button.
