Sprinklr offers capabilities to add an additional parameter on the Define Mapping screen. On the Mapping screen, the user can add additional parameters apart from the columns that are pre-existing in the source file. The parameter can be added using the Add Field button. These parameters can be configured to get their values from the record manager of the entity from where the data connector is mapped to run. These parameters are used to provide values which are not present in the source file.

​

A user should be able to configure a parameter that, at runtime, enables a connector to accept values not present in the original data source, for the purpose of creating or updating the entity.
