# Configure Externalized Parameters of an Integration Flow
## Context
Cloud Integration allows you to configure an integration flow individually or multiple integration flows at once. You can configure the runtime, error configuration and also provide a description about the integration flow.
> ### Remember:
> When you configure an externalized parameter, it is possible that you are allowed to provide a value for another dependent parameter which isn't externalized. In such cases, don't configure the dependent parameter. Configuration is supported only for externalized parameters. Even if you provide a value for an unexternalized parameter, it is ignored after you save your changes.
## Procedure
1. Open the integration flow..
2. Choose *Configure*.
> ### Note:
> You can also view the additional information added during parameter externalization, see [Externalized Parameters View](externalized-parameters-view-27a0216.md).
3. Select relevant details of externalised components in *Sender, Reciever* or *More*tab.
> ### Note:
> For more information, see [Configure Adapter in Communication Channels](https://help.sap.com/viewer/368c481cd6954bdfa5d0435479fd4eaf/Cloud/en-US/1f066330e8314324bf3ebe3b6adc21b2.html).
4. To view and modify externalised values for integration flow configuration or integration flow steps or local integration process or integration process.
1. Select *Type* of component.
> ### Note:
> You can also view all parameters of the component using *All Parameters* option.
2. Select *Name\[ID\]* of component.
You cannot select name for integration flow configuration.
5. If you want to save this configured integration flow as a version, choose *Save as version* and specify the version details.
6. If you want to save or deploy this integration flow, choose the appropriate option.
> ### Note:
> You can use error configuration to handle errors when message processing fails at runtime. You select an error handling strategy based on the descriptions below:
