DAX-Power Query | selected value from parameter

hi,

if i have created a parameter list called 'station' in power query, can i select a value from that parameter list in a dax formula? this is because i'm also using the parameter list to filter data in power query.

currently i have to hardcode a value in the dax formula as shown below-

MainAirport = "JFK"

 

however, i'd like to select a value from a parameter list, if possible.

kindly advise.

warmest rgds, -nik

for the moment, i'm opting the simple solution using SELECTEDVALUE function and using it with a slicer.

@hood2media  Power Query Parameters cannot be used in DAX. Alternatively you can use Field Parameters in Power BI Desktop and use them
