    • Click Actions > Edit Task Parameters.

  5. Enter the parameter name. Built-in script parameter names auto-suggest as you type. You can also enter a custom parameter.
  6. Enter the parameter value. Built-in script parameter value options vary depending on the selected parameter.
  7. Optionally, you can check the Secure parameter value check box to suppress the parameter value. Securing or suppressing a parameter value ensures that the value is not exposed during processes such as exporting or logging. Built-in script parameters with password values are automatically suppressed. Ensure that you record the secure parameter value, once saved it cannot be viewed or edited but can be reset. Secure parameters are only available on MOVEit Automation 2022.1 or later.
  8. Click Save .
