{{job.trigger.type}} not working and throws error on Edit Parameter from Job page

BrianJ — Fri, 19 Apr 2024 16:32:13 GMT

Following the instruction on the Job Parameter Dynamic values, I am able to use

However, when I set trigger_type as trigger_type: {{job.trigger.type}} and hit SAVE, it errors out as below image.

also, I noticed that the Dynamic values window from the Job parameter Edit Parameters page vs. the official doc has discrepancy - {{job.parameters.[name]}} is missing from the Job parameter Edit Parameters page.

Hi @BrianJ - As a workaround, can you please add the parameter at the task level instead of the job level - {{job.trigger.type}}.

Thanks everyone, I decided to use the Sparkcontext instead.

dbutils.notebook.entry_point.getDbutils().notebook().getContext().toJson()
