Hi Balaji,
Refer the below code to get the parameter value dynamically by retreiving from a SQL Database.
V_Access_Token = Sql.Database("your_server_url", "your_database", [Query="Select MAX(Column) as Value from Table;"]){0}[Value]Please accept this as a solution if this resolves your issue.

Jai 🙂

Hi,
Thanks for the solution Jai-Rathinavel and PhilipTreacy offered, and i want to offer some more information for user to refer to.
hello balaji_it02 , If you have a date column in your accesstoken table, you can filter for the most recent token and apply it. e.g
let Source = Sql.Database(yourserver, yourdatabasename, [Query="SELECT *FROM [table] where [CreatedDate]=(select max([CreatedDate]) from [table])""]), AccessTokens = Source[AccessToken]{0} in AccessTokensBest Regards!

Create a query to get the dynamic token and then call it putting the result in V_Access_Token?
V_Access_Token = Query_to_get_Token
