Hi,

You need to use context variables which will be populated at run time.

Hi @uganesh,

You need to create context variables first. For example, I have created some like this....

These will then be used to populate your parameters for your component. To do this, given the examples above, they would be referenced in your component like so...

context.Username

...and ...

context.Password

Then in your file, they need to be represented like below....

Username;richard
Password;mypassword

Notice how the context variable names in the file are Username and Password and that they are referenced with "context." preceeding them.

Your Implicit Context Load settings should look like below (my file is called contexts.txt)...

@uganesh ,you can directly specify like context.Module_Name there in the custom object and id you are writing SOQL there in the commponet then the module name should be context.Module_Name.
