Power BI Custom connector Custom UI input parameter windows

Hi Members,

I'm developing a Power BI custom connector using Power Query SDK.

 

I would like to understand how to customize the window where the user inserts the input parameters.

I found only the possibility to insert text parameters using the Value.ReplaceType function as shown here: Adding function documentation - Power Query | Microsoft Learn.

 

Is it possible to define different kind of parameters? My objective is something similar to the SQL server database connector:

How can I create a similar window with the Data Connectivity mode and Advance options ? 

Thank you!

Francesca
