Variables
If any variable parameters have been specified for the datasets or outputs of the flow, you can apply overrides to their default values. Click the listed default value and insert a new value. A variable can have an empty value.
注記
Override values applied to a job are not validated. Invalid overrides may cause your job to fail.
注記
Unless this output is a scheduled destination, variable overrides apply only to this job. Subsequent jobs use the default variable values, unless specified again. No data validation is performed on entries for override values.
ヒント
At the flow level, you can specify overrides at the flow level. Override values are applied to parameters of all types that are a case-sensitive match. However, values that are specified at runtime override flow-level overrides. For more information, see Manage Parameters Dialog.
For more information on variables, see Overview of Parameterization.
Output Settings
Depending on the type of output that you are generating, you must specify additional settings to define location, format, and other settings.
See File Settings.
