4. For Workspace Parameters: The project scope section becomes editable:

   • Change between “All Projects” and “Selected Projects”
   • Add or remove projects from the selection

5. Click “Save Changes” to apply all modifications.

6. As a result, the parameter is updated, and the new value will be used wherever the parameter is referenced.

Note: Changing a parameter value updates it everywhere it’s used. Be careful when editing parameters that are used in many places.

#Deleting Parameters

You can delete parameters if you have the appropriate permissions. Deleting a parameter requires handling its usages.

#To delete a parameter with no usages:

1. Open the parameter’s details modal.

2. Click the “Delete Parameter” (workspace) or “Remove Parameter” (project) button.

3. A confirmation dialog will appear:

   • Confirms that the parameter isn’t used anywhere

   • Notes that the action cannot be undone

4. Click “Delete Parameter” to confirm.

#To delete a parameter with usages:

1. Open the parameter’s details modal.

2. Click the “Delete Parameter” button.

3. A “Smart Delete” modal will appear showing:

   • Usage Warning: Alert indicating the parameter is used in multiple places
   • Usage Breakdown: Detailed list showing:
     • Testcases using the parameter (with names)
     • Requirements using the parameter (with names)
     • Shared Steps using the parameter (with names)
   • Action Options:
     • Remove from usages: Removes the parameter reference from all usages (leaves them empty)
     • Replace with value: Replaces all parameter references with a specific value

4. Choose an action:

   Option 1: Remove from usages:

   • Click “Remove from usages”
   • As a result, the parameter is deleted, and all references to it are removed from testcases, requirements, and shared steps

   Option 2: Replace with value:

   • Click “Replace with value”
   • Enter the replacement value in the input field
   • Click the action button to confirm
   • As a result, the parameter is deleted, and all references are replaced with the specified value

5. As a result, the parameter is deleted according to your chosen action.

Note: For workspace parameters deleted from project context, the parameter is removed only from that project but remains available in the workspace and other projects.
