Any suggestion on how to change the "end date" from static to "dynamic to the (current) Present date" for capturing the data till the current date, while refreshing it,

I have used the below formula to get the date and  then passed it as a parameter in API, But Thank you for your support and suggestion 

currentDate = Date.ToText(DateTime.Date(DateTime.LocalNow()), "yyyy-MM-dd"),


let

currentDate = Date.ToText(DateTime.Date(DateTime.LocalNow()), "yyyy-MM-dd"),


Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://cs-intmgroservices.io/intmgmtsvc/report/nReport" & "?startDt=2020-01-01&endDt=currentDate",
