No way this meets the goal, it's a workaround at best.

Wait, I thought Power Apps was for apps, not queries?

Totally agree, adding a visual won't help with the query.

I think I read somewhere that using parameters is crucial for maintaining data integrity, but I'm confused about how visuals fit into that.

I feel like this might not meet the goal. It seems like we need to focus on the query itself rather than just adding visuals.

I remember a practice question where we had to replace hard-coded values with parameters, but I don't think adding a visual was part of that solution.

I'm not entirely sure if adding a Power Apps custom visual actually updates the query to use the parameter. It seems more like a visual enhancement than a query adjustment.

Wait, so are we supposed to use the Power Apps visual or not? The question is a bit unclear on that. I'll need to think through the different options and make sure I pick the right one.

Okay, I think I've got this. The key is to update the query to reference the parameter instead of the hard-coded locations. I'll focus on that and not get distracted by the mention of the Power Apps visual.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused. The question mentions a Power Apps custom visual, but the solution doesn't seem to involve that. I'll need to re-read and make sure I understand what the actual goal is.

This seems straightforward. I'll read through the question carefully and think about how to update the query to use the parameter instead of hard-coded locations.

Adding a Power Apps custom visual to the report doesn't seem relevant to updating the query to reference a parameter. That's not the right solution.
