Parameter Definition

Parameter Definition is the representation of a parameter for products but declared outside.

The main purpose of this object is to reduce the time creating over and over the same parameter on several products. Beside its id, a parameter definition is absolutely the same as a parameter inside a product. Here is the documentation.

It is possible to create several parameter definition with the same parameter ID, only the id is unique on the Legal.

Parameter Definition Dashboard

The dashboard has few updated labels for better understanding.

New filter operator : equals

Both tables in the dashboard (the left Parameter ID table and the right ParameterDef ID table) now support an equals operator.

1. Click the filter icon on the column header.
2. Choose equals from the operator dropdown.
3. Type the exact ID you want to locate (e.g., priceDiscount or PD-12345).
4. Press Enter and the table instantly narrows to the exact match.

The equals operator is case-sensitive and matches the whole string, making it perfect for pinpointing a single definition.

Product Parameter Coverage Dialog

When you open the dialog from the dashboard, the title now displays the actual Parameter ID you are inspecting, e.g.:

Product Parameter Coverage: priceDiscount

Table layout changes

Column	Default visibility	What it shows
Catalog	Hidden (you can reveal it via the column-visibility menu)	The catalog(s) the product belongs to.
Parameter Definition ID	Visible	The Parameter Definition ID that the product is linked to for the current parameter. If the product uses a stand-alone parameter, the cell stays blank. A stand-alone parameter is a parameter that lives only on a single product. It is not linked to any reusable Parameter Definition.
Other product columns (Product ID, Name, …)	Unchanged	Same as before.

The Parameter Definition ID values are rendered as blue links. Clicking a link opens the Parameter Definition Dashboard with two pre-filters already applied:

Pre-filter	Value
Parameter ID	The parameter you are currently viewing in the dialog (the <parameter-ID> in the dialog title).
Parameter Definition ID	The ID you clicked.

This takes you straight to the definition that the product is using, so you can edit it without any extra searching.

Export All

Inside the Product Parameter Coverage dialog you can now export the list of products. To use the "export all" feature, please follow below steps:

1. Open the Product Parameter Coverage dialog from the Parameter Definition dashboard
2. In the dialog, click ACTIONS and then click the EXPORT ALL button
