Parameter with unique application value

I would like to link a REST URL as datasource.

   

Would it be possible to have a Parameter that is populated with a reference to the BI Desktop application.

 

 

 

Is there some value that I can use in that Current Value field?

 

Somebody knows if there are application variables available that I could use for this?

 

I would then use the parameter to concatinate the source URL:

 

 

Via this way I could identify each application user on the system.

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Best regards,

 

Kurt

      This is indeed what I was looking for. Any idea how this can be done? Is this a text value between [ ] or { } ? Any idea where I can find these Application Variables?

       

      Thanks in advance for your support!
