To add parameters to your data flow, click on the blank portion of the data flow canvas to see the general properties. In the settings pane, you will see a tab called **Parameter**. Select **New** to generate a new parameter. For each parameter, you must assign a name, select a type, and optionally set a default value.

Parameters can be referenced in any data flow expression. Parameters begin with $ and are immutable. You will find the list of available parameters inside of the Expression Builder under the **Parameters** tab.

Once you've created a data flow with parameters, you can execute it from a pipeline with the Execute Data Flow Activity. After you add the activity to your pipeline canvas, you will be presented with the available data flow parameters in the activity's **Parameters** tab.

When assigning parameter values, you can use either the [pipeline expression language](control-flow-expression-language-functions.md) or the [data flow expression language](data-transformation-functions.md) based on spark types. Each mapping data flow can have any combination of pipeline and data flow expression parameters.
