I don't see the Manage Parameter Icon

I want to create a date parameter for my data.  I have looked at the videos on how to create one, however, I do not see the Mangage Parameters icon on my menu.  I do see an option under Edit Queries to Edit Parameters, but this option is greyed out.  

 

I should be able to create a Parameter, but I don't see the option anywhere.  I have also updated my Power Bi to the latest version.

 

Thank you in advance for your help!

You were close: but first choose "New Parameter", just below "Edit Parameters". Once you have one or more parameters, the "Edit Patameters" option will be available,

Sorry to reply on an old thread... I've used parameters successfully in the past, but now I don't see "New Parameter" at all and "Edit Parameter" is greyed out. Maybe I've just forgotten where to find this feature. Hopefully this is not now a Pro/Premium-only feature?

 

Version: 2.48.4792.481 64-bit (July 2017)

I'm not sure if it's a premium feature (I'm on trial), but here's how it worked for me:

 

Click on "Edit Queries", then a new ribbon appears where you'll see "Manage Parameters". From there, select "New Parameter".

 

 

That's it!  Thank you so much!
