Hello,@divyamannava .I am glad to help you.
As suggested by lbendlin, you need to reconnect to the data source and change the connection to Direct Query mode.

You can see that this option is not available in import connection mode, whereas it is available in Direct query connection mode.

I hope that the following examples will help you.
Make sure the connection mode is Direct Query
and the parameters are set correctly.

Your table is in import mode.

Do these work with stored procedures or only with tables and views in direct query mode?

That depends on your masquerading skills.  Power Query doesn't know the difference between a table, a view , or anything else that returns a usable value (doesn't even have to be tabular until the very end)
