Which of the following is true?

  1. Mapping parameters have a constant value through out the session.

  2. In mapping parameters, values change and the Informatica server saves the values in the repository and uses next time when you run the session.

  4. Value of mapping parameter can be changed using functions.

A Correct answer
Explanation

Mapping parameters retain constant values throughout a session once initialized - they don't change during execution. Mapping variables (not parameters) can change values and the server saves them for reuse. Parameters CAN be used in expressions within transformations. The value of a mapping parameter is set at session start and cannot be changed using functions during execution - that's what variables are for.
