Question

Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution. After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen. You create a parameter named DataSourceExcel that holds the file name and location of a Microsoft Excel data source. You need to update the query to reference the parameter instead of multiple hard-coded copies of the location within each query definition. Solution: You add a Power Apps custom visual to the report. Does this meet the goal?

Why each option

Adding a Power Apps custom visual to a report does not enable Power Query to reference a parameter for data source locations; parameters are managed directly within Power Query.

AYes

This is incorrect because Power Apps visuals are for embedding applications within reports and have no function in configuring or referencing data source parameters in Power Query.

BNoCorrect

Adding a Power Apps custom visual to a report does not relate to or affect how Power Query queries reference data source parameters; Power Query parameters are configured and used within the Power Query Editor itself.
