I'm trying to set up a parameterised directquery to an Azure SQL database (for D365 finance and operations), but when I create the source query to bring a list of values to feed into the parameter query, PowerBI says that the query contains steps not supported in a live connection. The step that causes the issue is the Convert to List step which createas the list of values to use in the parameter query. Surely such a simple step shouldn't be excluded from directquery? Are parameterised queries possible with Directquery using a list?
