Parameter Blocks

Parameters

Parameter blocks are a convenient way to customize parameters for projects used in workflows without having to edit the workflow itself. Values in parameter blocks are available when configuring a job using the workflow.

Input Fields

Name

When assigning this block its name, it's recommended to use a human readable name that can be understood by anybody. Doing this will help minimize confusion when accessed later to troubleshoot or understand the intent.

Hint

This field is a sting input that will appear when the information icon is hovered over when setting parameters. You are encouraged to use as many words as necessary to make sure the intent of the parameter is properly communicated.

Value

Aside from a few exceptions, every parameter assigned within a workflow will have a default value associated with it. When you edit the parameters when setting up a job, you are altering this input to the algorithm.
