I have a text parameter in a Power BI Paginated Report, but the order of the drop down parameter values is scrambled.

How to sort the values in parameter drop-down menu (NOT result values) to be in ascending or descending order?

    Hi @Gian

    I found this link for you: https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Desktop/Paginated-Report-Can-you-sort-the-parameter-dropdown-list-by-a/td-p/3265701. You can try to modify the dataset model or modify the query.

    In fact, I don't know much about Power BI. If the above methods cannot solve your problem, I suggest you to seek help from the Power BI community: https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Microsoft-Power-BI-Community/ct-p/powerbi.
