Should I get a drop-down of values on Current Value for a Query based Power Query Parameter

I build a list to utilize a list query for a parameter as described here.  When I go populate a avlue in Current Value box  shouldn't I get a dropdown of lists to choose from.  See screenshot below

 

 

  • K.  I just read the comments in the blog post I referenced in the original post.  Turns out there is a bug that prevents the list from creating a drop-down in PQ as shown in the screen shot in the post.  Instead, close out of PQ  in PBD go to Queries>Transform Data>Edit Parameters and then the drop-downs will be available there.
