Hello,
I managed to create the 2 proposed parameter (ServerName and DatabaseName) and create a connection on each environments. This allow me to change the connection in the desktop application.

Next  step, will be to see I how to publish the report in the DEV environment and push it in the production one, using existing connections in the gateways.

Thank you for your help !

Can be done if you define parameters in Power Query for your 2 different sources. Then just by changing the parameter the source could be change DEVtoProd or ProdtoDEV.
