Jarek Jarcec Cecho commented on SQOOP-2168:
-------------------------------------------

I believe that you should be simply do something like:

{code}
sqoop job --exec myAwesome job -- --parameter NEW_VALUE
{code}

To override any stored parameter.

> I have a use-case where I want to be able to add a new partition on every run of an incremental import job. However, the parameters of this import job are saved when I create and job and store it in the metastore.
> I want to pass a parameter to this job on every run about the partition spec where I want the data to get imported to but I wasn't able to find a way to supply such a parameter when executing such a saved job.
