XML File Path

Defines the path of a file where an operator is executed. The file path can be a shared location or a URL.

Inline XSL

Specifies the XSL data that acts as an input.

XSLT Version

Input Parameters

Specifies the input parameters as key-value pairs in XSLT Operator. You can dynamically assign values to the input parameters (key) that are defined in XSL.

You can define a key (top-author) in XSL and can assign a value (Robert Kisosk) from an XSLT Operator as in the following example:

<xsl:param name="top-author">Jasper Forde</xsl:param>

Key: top-author Value=”Robert Kisosk”
