I've built an generic automation that encompasses some business logic. I've isolated the variable input as global parameters, and duplicating the automation and only changing the global parameters to adopt them for another dataset.

 

Is there a way to initiate an automation and setting these parameters ?

 

The automation server app does not provide for this as-is (2022.2.2), so I'm curious as to whether there are other ways to accomplish it ?

Cheers.

Build a custom webpage/form and then use that to trigger a webhook I guess.

You missed the "with parameters" parts. That's what stumps me.
