For parameters you have simple types like "Numbers", "Date" etc. It would be great if we get a "File Path" and "Directory" type as well. When you're asked for a parameter like that you should get a "File - Open" dialog where you can look for a file (same applies for a path).

RE: "File Path" and "Directory" as a Parameter type including selector
this is a great idea.
currently i'm using PowerQuery in Excel.
the only way to achieve the "file-open" dialog that i've seen is to use VBA.. would be great if the PowerQuery parameter handled this without the need for the VBA code.
RE: "File Path" and "Directory" as a Parameter type including selector
Great idea ! Voted
Did someone tried to select a file with R ? So when I refresh the report, R generates a popup
to select the file and outputs the file name.
