How can we pass parameters while scheduling queries in Databricks SQL?

[Cami]

Hello:)

How would you like pass a parameters and where? Is it ok for you to have value stored on the query level?

Did you checked documentation out?

What is your bussines case?

or perhaps this question resolve your issue

I had gone through the documentation, not explored the query-based dropdown list. However, can the users change the parameter value once the query is refreshed and dashboard is populated? Primarily, I am not sure of how to pass default values for parameters as i need to schedule the queries and get the dashboard populated.

Any string between double curly braces 

{{ }}

 is treated as a query parameter. widget  can be an option here.

Hi @Sajid Thavalengal Rahiman​ 

When you write your query into DBSQL, just add a variable into brackets like this, it will add automatically the widget with the name given in the SQL Code (You can customize the type of your widget by clicking on the icon on the right of the widget):
