Importing a parameter group

You can import existing parameter groups into your flow draft so you do not have to individually copy and paste values that are common in an environment, such as credentials or access paths.

One use case is to import a parameter group that was created earlier to reuse it in your draft. This is useful, for example, to share credentials, access paths, and so on between several flows within a project. Another use case is exporting draft parameters as a parameter group from the flow draft you are working on, then immediately importing the same group back to your draft to replace flow-specific draft parameters with ones that can be shared and reused.
  1. On the Flow Design canvas, select Flow Options > Parameters.
  2. Select the Parameter Groups tab and click Import Parameter Group.
    The Import Parameter Group modal opens.
  3. From the Select Parameter Group drop-down select the group you want to import.
    The list displays only the parameter groups available to you, that is, parameter groups that are either in a project where you have at least the DFProjectMember permission or parameters in the same workspace that are not assigned to any project.
  4. Click Import.
  5. To finalize the changes you made, click Apply Changes.

After importing the parameter group, go to the All Parameters tab. There you can remove unnecessary draft parameters that have overlapping values with shared parameters. This is useful, because draft parameters always have precedence over parameters in an imported parameter group.
