Can I bridge parameters for multiple connections?

In a looker project, I'm currently using 3 connections, while I need 1 parameter field. Due to its nature, I've only managed to create 3 identical parameters, one for each connection. Is there a way to bridge them, so altering the value of one will alter the value of the others as well?

I'm not sure I follow! When you say "altering the value" of a parameter, are you referring to an end user changing the values? If so, I can't see how that should work across models/connections, since an end user can only query one model at a time.

I suppose you can query multiple different models on a dashboard, via multiple different tiles. But in that case, you can set up a single filter which would apply to all of the different tiles, regardless of model.

If you're just referring to LookML definitions, you might find constants helpful? These are defined in the project manifest file so they can be referenced in multiple model files in a project.
