Connecting to parameters in Amazon Quick Suite

Use this section after you have a parameter set up, to connect it and make it work.

After you create a parameter, you can create consumers of the parameters. Parameter consumers are components that consume the value of a parameter, such as filters, controls, calculated fields, or custom actions.

You can navigate to each of these options in another way, as follows:

  • To create a filter, choose the Filter icon at the top of the page. In short, you create a Custom Filter and enable Use parameters. The list shows only eligible parameters.

  • To add a new control for the parameter, choose the Parameters icon at the top of the page. In short, choose your parameter, and then Add control.

  • To use a parameter in a calculated field, either edit an existing calculated field, or add a new one by choosing Add at the top left. The parameter list appears below the field list.

    Note

    You can't use multivalue parameters with calculated fields.

  • To create a URL action, choose the v-shaped menu on a visual, and then choose URL Actions.
