1.3.1.2.3.1. Edit Parameters

The workflow parameters can have their initial configuration modified according to the user's needs. In order to do that, select a workflow timestamp with at least one input workflow parameter defined, go to Parameters tab and click on Edit parameters:

 The Edit parameters window will be opened allowing the user to configure the input parameters (workflow and virtual parameters can be configured here):

The Edit Parameters window consists in 3 sections:

• Parameter Groups - By default, when creating a new workflow all input parameters will be displayed in the Unassigned group. Users can define Parameter Groups to organize parameters with the same scope in one group
• Parameters - The parameters' position can be changed using drag and drop up and down the list. In order to edit a parameter the user must first select it. In its initial state, a parameter is provided with a display name that is identical to the parameter's name; the field is marked as mandatory
• Selected Parameter Configuration - Parameter types and options can be configured in this area

Valid Parameter Type/Type Configuration matches:

• Date Picker →  accepts DateTime & String types
• CheckBox →  accepts Boolean & String types
• ComboBox/ListView →  accepts String (for single selection) & String[] (for multiple selection) types 
• VMware Host Picker →  accepts String[] type
• Grid → accepts Collection<Collection<String>> type
• Objects Selector →  accepts String (for single selection) & String[] (for multiple selection) types
• Other Parameter Type Configuration  → accepts String type

If an incorrect configuration type is selected for a parameter (for example for a parameter of type String, the Grid configuration cannot be selected because it requires Collection<Collection<String>> type) a validation error will be thrown when trying to save the new configuration:
