(info) Parameter values and unprocessed content

When adding a space workflow, a parameter reference value may only be available for use by the workflow after a workflow process occurs - such as a transition. For example, the initial state should not include the use of the parameter reference value for a duedate or pre-assigned reviewers for approvals to avoid blocking your workflow as these values may not be available until after a workflow process has taken place

To process content and ensure parameter values are set up, a space admin can also choose to Initialize states on applying a space workflow. This action will process the pages and the workflow parameter value will be available for use by the workflow in the initial state.

Events

The following following events are generated when page-level parameters are updated

...

...

(warning) Editing the parameter value in the the Parameters dashboard will not change the value used in a workflow that has already been added and applied to content in the space.
