hi, I am trying to pass some data from a UE afterSubmit to a Map Reduce. In the UE, I have something like:

function afterSubmit(context){

var exampleData = '31396046';

var scriptTask = task.create({

taskType: task.TaskType.MAP_REDUCE

});

scriptTask.scriptId = 'customscript_some_valid_script_id';

scriptTask.deploymentId = 'customdeploy_some_valid_deploy';

scriptTask.params = {

custscript_data: exampleData

};

var scriptTaskId = scriptTask.submit();

}

And in the getInputData of the M/R, something like:

var script = runtime.getCurrentScript();

var needThis = script.getParameter({name:'custscript_data'});

log.debug("data needed", needThis);

So the M/R fires, and the log hits, but

needThis

is empty. Obviously, I'd like it to be the exampleData var from the UE script. I am guessing i've set something up incorrectly? Is the param name set in the M/R deployment record? Thank you.

script parameters are basically like custom fields

ok, thanks, I was somewhat thinking that because I saw somewhere online about a parameters tab on the deployment in NS, but I just didn't see that tab and hoped I could set them this way.
