Question

Answer 1

If you want to create job parameter via Glue Console (UI), you have to first define the argument in the job:

• unfold the Script libraries and job parameters sections

• enter your parameter:

• Read it in your code (Scala example):

  def main(sysArgs: Array[String]) {
    val args = GlueArgParser.getResolvedOptions(sysArgs, Array("input_file_path"))
    print(s"Input path: ${args("input_file_path")}")
  }
  

• Read it in your code (Python):

  import sys
  
  args = getResolvedOptions(sys.argv, ['input_file_path'])
  print(args['input_file_path'])
