parameters no dict Optional parameters to be passed to the trigger.

Inside the trigger’s parameters section, { get_property: [SELF, property_name] } can be used to access properties of the event that caused the trigger to be processed. For example, a policy may add contextual data to an event, such as a node instance ID or the CPU average in the last five minutes, before processing its triggers. An execute_workflow trigger, for example, may pass these properties to the workflow it executes.
