Follow the steps listed below to get the desired parameters to enter in **Fylamynt**

* In above picture after username attribute is Repo Id (ie: \<username>/\<repoId>), copy the repo id
* Here parameter Ref is any branch or any commit, (**Note:** If not provided default branch would be used)
* Here File Path parameter is the absolute path of template json file (with respect to root of the Repo), In below image as can be seen the aws\_ec2.json is the template file, hence file path would be **mydir/aws\_ec2.json**
