You can generate and download a parameter file template that contains mapping parameters and their default values. The parameter file template includes input and in-out parameters that can be overridden at runtime. Save the parameter file template and use it to apply parameter values when you run the task, or copy the mapping parameters to another parameter file.
When you generate a parameter file template, the file contains the default parameter values from the mapping on which the task is based. If you do not specify a default value when you create the parameter, the value for the parameter in the template is blank.
The parameter file template does not contain the following elements:
Runtime values that you specify in the
mapping
task
Partial parameters
Advanced session properties
System defined variables
If you add, edit, or delete parameters in the mapping, download a new parameter file template.
