I am using a blank query to get data from an API endpoint. I am using a parameter in the query and it is working fine. Now I want to make it dynamic so that it can be changed with a slicer. The slicer is getting values from a column which I created in a separate table. Now I am trying to connect this column to the parameter but I am not finding any advance option to do that.
The parameter type and the column type are text.
I am following this https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/connect-data/desktop-dynamic-m-query-parameters

Not clear to me what you mean. Can you please elaborate?

Dynamic MQuery Parameters only work with Direct Query data sources. Your API data source is Import Mode and that won't work.
Yes, I know that. Is there any other way I can use slicer selection in direct query? We can use table data in the power query that's why I was wondering if there are any workaround for this
