I assume that you are talking about a Power Query parameter - in which case the answer is no you cannot do this. You can only change those parameters from inside Power BI Desktop. The only thing you can configure from Power BI Report Server are the connection details for certain types of connections.

 


If not is it possible in Power Query to realize if Power BI Desktop is in use or Power BI Report Server?

No, sorry this is not possible either. You could maybe post this as a suggestion at https://ideas.powerbi.com 

I can't even think of a good workaround as you cannot read environment variables either.

    Is this still not supported (since you last commented)?
