Using Parameters

When you have defined, for example, a db_table (parameter) which means a database table named employee (its value) (as above), you can only use ${db_table} instead of employee wherever you are using this database table.

[Note]Note

Remember that since the version 2.8.0 of CloudConnect, you can also use CTL expressions in parameters. Such CTL expressions can use any possibilities of CTL language. However, these CTL expressions must be surrounded by back quotes.

For example, if you define a parameter TODAY="`today()`" and use it in your CTL codes, such ${TODAY} expression will be resolved to the date of this day.

If you want to display a back quote as is, you must use this back quote preceded by back slash as follows: \`.

[Important]Important

CTL1 version is used in such expressions.

As was mentioned above, all can be expressed using a parameter.
