parameterise data extraction from Google Analytics

I have access to Google Analytics data of a website (obtained through tagging imposed by the website's developer). 

Here I have a access to several sections of the "property".

 

In my case I am interested in GA data from two sections: the website and the blog.

For both I need to perform the same extractions, creating the same Dimension tables and so forth...

Hence, I perform the same extractions twice, while they look the same differing only in the top lines,

which look something like this:

 

let
        Source = GoogleAnalytics.Accounts(),
        #"11223344" = Source{[Id="11223344"]}[Data],
        #"UA-11223344-2" = #"11223344"{[Id=UA-11223344-2]}[Data],
        #"556677889" = #"UA-11223344-2"{[Id="556677889"]}[Data],
        #"Added Items" = Cube.Transform(#"556677889",

(for the website)

 

and 

 

let

        Source = GoogleAnalytics.Accounts(),
        #"11223344" = Source{[Id="11223344"]}[Data],
        #"UA-11223344-4" = #"11223344"{[Id="UA-11223344-4"]}[Data],
        #"566778899" = #"UA-11223344-4"{[Id="566778899"]}[Data],
        #"Added Items" = Cube.Transform(#"566778899",

(for the blog)

 

I thought of creating two new parameters, with two possible values each, to be chosen from a list. 

Following the example above: 

param1 = "UA-11223344-2" or "UA-11223344-2"

param2 = "556677889" or "566778899"

then putting a condition (using M) to pick ether one or the other value of param2 in line 5, depending on the value of param1.

 

However, despite correctly recognising the parameter value, Power Query returns the following error:

 

Expression.Error: The key didn't match any rows in the table.
Details:
    Key=
        Id="UA-11223344-2"
    Table=[Table]

 

Does anybody know a way to solve this issue? Thank you

Hi @andrea_chiappo 

Firstly, connect to the data source and open the advanced editor, you would get codes as below:

let
        Source = GoogleAnalytics.Accounts(),
        #"11223344" = Source{[Id="11223344"]}[Data],
        #"UA-11223344-2" = #"11223344"{[Id=UA-11223344-2]}[Data],
        #"556677889" = #"UA-11223344-2"{[Id="556677889"]}[Data],
        #"Added Items" = Cube.Transform(#"556677889",

Change it to the following:

let
        Source = GoogleAnalytics.Accounts(),
        step1 = Source{[Id="11223344"]}[Data],
        step2= step1{[Id=parameter1]}[Data],
        step3 = step2{[Id=parameter2]}[Data],
        #"Added Items" = Cube.Transform(step3,

meanwhile, create two parameter:

parameter1, parameter2

I tried this but it didn't work
