Parameters

Parameters are described in Parameters.

The parameters can be used in Data Shaper transformation language in the following way: ${nameOfTheParameter}.

If you want such a parameter to be considered as a string data type, you must surround it by single or double quotes: '${nameOfTheParameter}' or "${nameOfTheParameter}".


  1. Remember that escape sequences are always resolved as soon as they are assigned to parameters. For this reason, if you want them not to be resolved, type double backslashes in these strings instead of single ones.
  2. Also remember that you can get the values of environment variables using parameters. To learn how to do it, see Environment Variables.
