How to use context variable at run time

[Anonymous]

Hi -

I have a job that uses a REST service. I pull a variable (customer_account) from a database, and require another variable (date) to be entered at run time

On the build I want to execute as follows MyJob.sh $date(yyyy-mm-dd).

I added the date under the context variable, but do not get a prompt for the date value when running it 

Any suggestions?

My job:

tRESTClient:

You can pass the value for a context variable on the command line using "--context=$yourVariable".
