Hi @khk, unfortunately there is no way to copy parameters between different workspaces currently. Add your comment to this idea and vote it up!

Hi Takashi,

Thanks for reply.

I was trying add variables for database connection using private parameters (5 parameters for postgis namely database, host, port, username, password). I have to do it for 80 work spaces approx.

Partial workaround i did was below. It has saved parameters creation time in each workspace.

1. Added required parameters in 1st workspace.

2. Added new transformer (here i have added feature reader transformer where db connectivity parameters are available to assign) to the workspace and assigned private parameter values to the added transformer.

3. Copied this transformer to 2nd workspace, where i have to create private parameters.

4. After copying transformer (feature reader transformer), automatically 5 private parameters are added in 2nd workspace. I have assigned values of private parameters to 2nd workspace reader.

5. After assigning variables in 2nd workspace, deleted copied transformer (feature reader).

Regards,

KHK
