Parameter Settings
You can override Find Nearest stage settings using parameters set in the input channel to the stage. Input parameters allow services and applications to run a flow against different databases or with different input settings.
Parameters set in the channel override settings made in the Find Nearest stage. Before setting parameters in the channel, set up the Find Nearest stage on the Input, Settings, and Output tabs.
