The workflow parameter name is added enclosed in the @ symbol.

Info

Once the workflow parameter is added to the workflow, it will appear as an option in the dialog box when typing "@Tea…"

The value of the workflow parameter can be changed in the space settings Document Management dashboard by a space admin using the Set Parameters button.

The Set Parameters button is only displayed if the displayed workflow in space workflow configuration includes at least one workflow parameter.

Choose Set Parameters to display all workflow parameters in a dialog box.

The changed value will be used by the workflow when it next encounters the workflow parameter, for example when the workflow is applied to other content across the space.

This allows the same workflow to be used in different spaces with different values for the reviewers for the approval.

Tip

You can add an additional workflow parameter for each different team of reviewers. This allows you to manage your review teams locally changing the values for the workflow parameter (a user type or group type workflow parameter) for each space without the need to create a different workflow for each space.
