Parameters

Review all the parameters found in the requests. You can select which parameters are tracked and which are not tracked, and edit their values.

This stage displays all parameters found in the requests across the application as a single list, and is particularly useful when you want to track, or change the value of, multiple parameters. You can:

Edit the Value and Tracked status of individual parameters by clicking on the parameter.
Change the Default general value, Username and Password.
Note: If defaults are defined in the description files they are used unless changed here. If there are definitions in the Form Filler configuration they are used for parameters not defined in the description file.
Restore default values after changes were made.
