Parameters are variables that you can use to pass inputs dynamically when invoking Pipelines. Parameter values remain unchanged during Pipeline execution. When defined, these values can be accessed from any part of the Pipeline and are especially useful in parent-child Pipeline construct. Passing Pipeline arguments as parameters allow allows a Pipeline to be reused in multiple situations; this reuse can especially be helpful when creating Tasks from Pipelines. You can also append a query string to the URL with the key/value pairs of the parameters defined in the Pipeline properties.

- In SnapLogic Designer, click the toolbar Edit Pipeline Properties button:
In the Edit Pipeline dialog Parameters section, click
to add the parameter in the Key field, then define it in the Value field.
Info title Pipeline Parameters The Value specified for a particular Key in the Pipeline Parameters that are set from the Pipeline Settings dialog overrides the Value defined in the individual Snaps that make up the Pipeline.

- PATH_INFO—The path elements after the Task part of the URL.
- REMOTE_USER—The name of the user that invoked this request.
- REMOTE_ADDR—The IP address of the host that invoked this request.
- REQUEST_METHOD—The method used to invoke this request.
- QUERY_STRING—The query string element of the URL that made the request.
- REMOTE_PORT—The port of the client that made the request.

We return the IP address of the client or last proxy that sent the request. |
When referencing these arguments, they must be prefixed with an underscore like any other parameter. When designing a Pipeline, you might find it easier to explicitly add these parameters with a default value.
...
- The header must be capitalized in its entirety. Headers are case-sensitive.
- Hyphens must be changed to underscores.
- The HTTP custom headers override both the Task and Pipeline parameters, but the query string parameter has the highest precedence.
We support the x-snapi-pipeline-ruuid customer header in the HTTP response to Triggered Task requests.
For example, if you pass a tenant ID (X-TENANT-ID) in a header, add the parameter X_TENANT_ID and provide a default or leave it blank. When you configure the expression, refer to the Pipeline argument following standard convention: _X_TENANT_ID. In the HTTP request, you add the header X-TENANT-ID: 123abc, which results in the value 123abc being substituted for the Pipeline argument X_TENANT_ID.

|---|
Custom response headers are supported for Ultra Task or Triggered tasks invoked using Ground URLs. They are not supported for Cloud invoked Triggered tasks. |
Example
You can set an HTTP header in a Triggered Task by using the Mapper Snap.
To set the header, add a Mapper Snap to the end of the Pipeline.
