About Context Parameters for Network Integrity Processors

Context parameters identify individual inputs to, and outputs from, processors. These parameters are defined by name, data type, and description. Input and output parameters, with other processor-specific attributes like properties, are used in generated classes.

Configure context parameters on the Processor editor Context Parameters tab.

You can add the following types of context parameters:

Input parameters: an object, output from a predecessor processor in the sequence of processors in the action, that contains parameters relevant to the current processor.
Output parameters: an object, that is created or modified by the processor. If a processor is configured with an output parameter, Design Studio sets the interface to have the response object as the return type.
