Currently creating new parameters you can only supply static values regardless of the type of the parameters. Allow ability to use dax to set parameter values.

For example for Date type parameter I should be able to use Today () function to set parameter value.

I Agree with Ankit, for example you could create a URL that filters data (oData) based on the date. Would help to reduce the amount of data retrieved by the Power BI Report hugely.

Hello Dear Ankit
Could you provide some more context about what new parameter you create?
