Has anyone been able to link (not import) via SQL a choice/alias list to a published parameter to dynamically update the list based on the linked table at runtime.  I.e. the goal is not have to continually import / update choices each time the workbench is executed.

Hi,

 

 

I also wish it were possible, but unfortunately, it seems that we can change the definition (including choice / alias list) of a Published Parameter only when creating or modifying the workspace. I don't think it's possible to update those dynamically at runtime.

I think the only way to do this is to have 2 workspaces,  the first reads the parameter values and passes them to the second at run time.

Hi Jryan,

 

 

If you are looking for how to select an item from the choice list for a published parameter at runtime, as Nic mentioned, you can create 2 workspaces to do that. I felt that you raised a question about how to update items of the list dynamically.
