About Parameter Definitions
This topic orients you with the properties you specify to create parameters and how to look up objects and values to specify as the default value of a parameter.
Property Types
You specify two types of properties to create a parameter, as shown below:
-
General properties, such as user prompt and sort order, that are common to all parameter types.
-
Data source properties that are parameter type-specific. These properties define the value or objects to apply with the parameter or the prompt options that users can select at runtime.
