Provide values for parameters
You can provide either a dynamic or static value to a parameter. For example, when creating an action that queries the database, you can map the query output to a form field, form variable or global variable. Or, you can apply a static value in response to the query.
-
To specify a dynamic value, consume the form field, form variable or global variable in the Value box.
-
To provide a static value, click Static and enter the value in the Value box.
-
In some cases, you can use a combination of dynamic and static values.
When using static dates in rules, use a locale-neutral format. Otherwise, unexpected results can occur.
