Required : Users can specify whether a certain parameter is optional or a value for that parameter must be specified required. Parameter Type : This field applies a Data Type restriction on the input value for the parameter. Users can also specify Any type for more flexibility. Parameter Accepted Values : In addition to Data Type restrictions, users can apply further restrictions to the allowed values for a given parameter.
For instance, users could specify that the Data Type for a parameter is Text and restrict the acceptable values to a static list of Text values.
Users will then be able to pick one of these values when specifying the parameter value to use. Currently, only a static list of Accepted Values or any value of the expected type are accepted. In future updates, we will enable users to bind the list of Accepted Values for a parameter to the output of another query.
This would enable dynamic sets of options to be displayed to the user, maybe even based on their selection for a previous parameter. Also in a future update, we will enable users to select more than one value from the list of Accepted Values, rather than just one as it is the case in the current product version. Templates are also a good way to standardize your reports. As stated earlier, you can also create your own templates out of existing templates that you made or downloaded.
As of now, there are only a few sources of Power BI report templates online. However, there are lots of Power BI reports available for download with stunning reports. And if you know how to create report layouts, then you can download those reports and make a template out of them. Note that not all these are in PBIT format. Some of them are in PBIX format so you would have to export them as templates.
It would probably be a crime not to include this awesome layout by the Microsoft team in September This cool report shows a snapshot of all relevant data with a user-centric view which provides a detailed analysis.

Imagine using the same layout for how well your business is doing in different places. You should then have access to the theme's framework, where you can begin to edit colors and elements to your liking.
In this section, we'll walk through the 'Name and Colors' part of the Power BI themes framework to help you understand how each element impacts the design of your report. We won't cover the other parts as they are self-explanatory. See here for the full list of elements effected by the advanced section.
You should now have a good understanding of how the Power BI customize theme framework works, and how each element affects the design of your report. In this section, we're going to share the simple step by step process we use to create Power BI themes.
Before we even start to create our theme in Power BI, it's vital that we have a clear understanding of the colors we want to use, and where we're going to use them. In this step we'll help you create a color palette that can be used within your Power BI theme, all whilst following data visualization design best practice.
We'll now begin to guide you through each one of the colors above so that you can populate your color palette builder as we go. In this stage, we'll transfer your color palette into Power BI and build your theme using the customize theme framework, where you'll then be able to apply and download your theme. Once populated, simply apply your theme and you're ready to make the final adjustments to your report.
Please note that there are a few limitations to the Power BI customize theme framework and as such we implement a few workarounds to provide us with greater flexibility when customizing reports. For example, we override a number of the default formatting color options that are applied based on the 'Advanced' section of the customize theme framework. Using this method still ensures you are able to seamlessly change themes without any change in formatting, although the themes will need to be built using our methodology.
For an example of how this works, see the video below, in which we manually override the default background color on the slicer visual by using one of the colors from our color palette, in this case, color 8 slicer color.

To change the file path, click on the Advanced option first and then click on the dropdown of the file path and choose parameter as shown in the image below.
When you click on OK you will get to see that your path is been replaced by your parameter as shown below. Power BI Templates file.

When data gets loaded completely you will observe that your Power BI templates file includes all the data that you had applied to your report.
