Is it possible to reference parameters within the ExecuteScript processor?

Is it possible to reference parameters within the ExecuteScript processor? My current solution is to create an attribute which contains the parameter value, but it would be a much cleaner solution to be able to directly reference the parameter from the parameter context in my script. For reference, I am using Python.

Have you seen if this has what you're referring to?

@Carson,

Like @joseomjr wrote (but did not gave the entire link by mistake), you should take a look at the following Article as it describes exactly what you need --> https://community.cloudera.com/t5/Community-Articles/ExecuteScript-Cookbook-part-3/ta-p/249148

Basically, you add the property in your NiFi Processor and reference it to your parameter value and afterwards you call it in your script:

myValue1 = myProperty1.getValue()
