# Parametrization

Optimize desktop client report workflows with detailed parametrization instructions. Learn to customize and streamline report generation for efficient, tailored data analysis.

In aqua, you can enter parameters in order to specialize and filter your reports better. To do so, open the report designer. On the right side, you can enter a new parameter to the report, which can be used to specify or filter elements. In the following, we will explain how to filter the **tested version** of a test execution in a test scenario.

Aright-clicking on Parameters, you can add a new parameter. In the next screen, you can specify such a parameter with the following values:

In this case, you should specify our parameter:&#x20;

Name: tested\_version

Type: String,

and click on OK: Back in the Report Designer, we filter our band "ReportData.TestScenarioReport.TestScenarios.Execution" by left-clicking on this symbol ![](http://aquawiki.andagon.com/pictures/drex_parametrization_2_custom_3.png)&#x20;

<figure><img src="http://aquawiki.andagon.com/pictures/drex_parametrization_2_custom_4.png" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Now, you can filter your band by left-clicking on "..." in the field *Filter String*.

&#x20;To filter your aqua field using the report parameter, you have to click on the pencil left to the X and then on the book. A question mark is now visible, as shown in the picture below. &#x20;

If you create a report on new data, you will receive the preview of your report with the data of your aqua system. On the left side, you can enter your parameter which you submit. The preview will have changed to the selected data. This can be exported and stored to your local desktop.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.aqua-cloud.io/documentation/desktop-client/reporting/parametrization.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
