You use workflow to add and edit workflow parameters in the workflow.

Choose the workflow name in the workflow panel.

Any existing workflow parameters are listed for the workflow.


Choose  + Add Parameter or select an existing parameter to edit.

The Add parameter dialogue box is displayed.

Create the workflow parameter by

  • adding the parameter name

  • setting the type of parameter from the dropdown menu

  • optionally set a label to use as a friendly name for the parameter

  • adding a description

The type of parameter will also determine the options for adding the value. A user parameter will expect one or more usernames as the value.

duration parameter will provide options to set the value using a specific Period of time, a specific Fixed Date or an ISO_8601 duration value.

The Period and ISO_8601 duration are relative time periods set from the workflow event. For example when using for the value of a workflow state expiry, the duration is set from the transition date to the state.

Examples of use of an IS0 6081 duration string are

  • P6M1D - a period of six months and one day

  • P1Y - a period of one year

  • PT6H30M - a period of time of six hours and thirty minutes

Value references (including using another workflow parameter) cannot be used as a value for a workflow parameter.

Choose Apply to update the workflow in workflow builder.

Saving any changes to a bundled workflow will create a copy as a custom workflow. The bundled workflow cannot be changed.

Choose Save and then Exit in the navigator panel to add to the space settings dashboard.
