Error: We cannot convert the value #datetime() to type Date..

Exception: We cannot convert the value #datetime(2023, 5, 18, 0, 0, 0) to type Date..
when trying to convert or pass a date parameter into a query in power query mode. 
conversation syntax:

Date_text = Date.ToText(Date_value)
Date_value is of date data type. I've also tried using

• Date_text = Date.ToText(Date_value, "mm/dd/yyyy")

• Date_text = Date.ToText(Date_value, #duration(1, 0, 0, 0))

I am using direct query mode.
