## Inputs

Set `Query`, `PageNumber`, `PageSize` in the task details. Use the value editor to select compatible results from earlier tasks.

### Named Input Rows

Use the **+** button in **Inputs** to add one row per query parameter. Enter its exact name, select its type, and enter a value or select an earlier result. Keep the fixed inputs. Additional names must be unique and different from the fixed input names.

See [Named Input Rows](../../../business_workflow_task.md#named-input-rows) for a worked example.

## Outputs

Use `Rows`, `RowCount`, `Found`, `TotalRowCount` in subsequent tasks.

??? example "Execute Named Query"

    Select a saved query with a String parameter named `Prefix`. Add a String row named `Prefix` and enter the desired prefix. Set paging inputs and consume `Rows` or project identifiers for Load entities.
