How do I create a parameter in the console of AWS Data Pipeline

Question:

I’d like to define some parameters in the console of AWS DataPipeline, but am not able to do so. The parameters are going to be called in a SqlActivity, so when I try to refer to them in the in-line SQL script and save the pipeline, I’m getting error messages saying that no such parameters exist. The parameters page is blank and I can’t find the button to make one.
Google results are all showing me how to create parameterized pipelines, which is not what I’m exactly looking for

Answer:

At the moment, you cannot create parameter objects from the AWS Datapipeline console. Please use aws cli to create a pipeline definition with parameter objects.
