Hi @GAPER ,

 

What you have created is a Parameter to be used in the PowerQuery layer, like a the connection string for a database.

 

To access it, you need to go to the PowerQuery  ( Home -> Transform Data )

In there, on the lef hand side, you'll see the parameter you have created

Afterwards you can used, for instance, to filter the information of a column in your queries:
