Parameters to set up database connections?

Greetings!

Is it possible to configure Power Query Parameter values on Power BI Report Server?

Problem:
We have *.pbix with connections configured with DEV data sources (folders, SQL Servers). We would like to be able to deploy the same *.pbix to TEST and PROD environments (Power BI Report Sever) and update the data source connection strings on the server.

Is this possible?

However, there are some common parameters that you'll often need to specify:

Hi @Adward345 

I am not sure whether you have interpretted my question correctly.

Is it possible to deploy a pbix to Power BI report server and update the connection strings on the report server? If this is possible, that is wonderful. In this case, can you please provide detailed steps as to how.

Thank you
