I have created a simple Workflow job and want to be able to trigger it via URL with some parameters. However using the Parameterized job plugin doesn't appear to work. I filed a bug last week on it and it is currently blocking further development on my end. Has anyone found a workaround?

Hi,

Yes, workflows can be parameterized. You must select, "This build is parameterized" in the configuration of the workflow.

The following link has a pointer to a workflow script I wrote which is parameterized, and even detects if certain parameters are set or not:
