Add and manage parameters | Zoho Creator Help

Add and manage parameters

Note: Page parameters are now improvized as page variables! All your existing page parameters have been moved to the Page Variables and Script tab at the top-right of the page builder.  In this tab, you can continue to use these parameters as variables, create new page variables, and continue to pass values to them similar to page parameters. Additionally, you can configure custom logic in your page scripts to modify and manipulate these variables.

To add a parameter to your page

Note: You'll be warned when you use a restricted word to name the page parameter.
  1. Edit your app.
  2. Select the required page from the accordion menu on the top-left corner, or from the application preview in the middle. You'll be taken to its  Design  page. 
  3. Hover in the middle and click  Open Page Builder .
  4. Click the  Gear  icon near the top-right corner of the builder. The  Page properties  pane will appear.
  5. Click  Add parameter  under the  parameter  section. Type a parameter name and click  Add .

To delete a parameter from your page

  1. Click the Properties icon near the top-right corner of the page builder. The Page properties pane will appear.
  2. Scroll down, then hover over the required parameter. Now, click on the Trash icon that appears on the right. 
  3. Then click Delete in the popup.
  4. If the parameter has been used in any page element, then the list of such occurrences will be displayed.

    Note: The parameter cannot be deleted unless it is removed from each and every occurrence listed.

  5. Clicking the View button will open the location where the parameter has been used. There you need to remove any reference to the parameter that has to be deleted.

  6. Similarly, remove references to this parameter in all the listed occurrences. Once done, you'll be able to click the Proceed to Delete button.
