Use the Parameters tab for informational purposes to document the name, description, and data type of parameters used in the list view rule. Information on this tab has no runtime effect.

In most cases, an activity with a Property-Set method is executed before the list view is executed, supplying values for the parameters. Then the standard activity Rule-Obj-ListView.ShowView is called, passing the parameter page. For an example, see PDN article How to use parameters as selection criteria in a list view report.

For security reasons, list view rules that run on a web node as part of a composite application cannot use parameters as selection criteria.
