# Static options

> Define a fixed list of values for a parameter on a group, an environment, or a blueprint

Site [llms.txt](/llms.txt)

The values a requestor can choose from are configured on the blueprint, the group, and the environment they are ordering from. A parameter can also carry a list of its own, set on the parameter. These options are static and do not change at order time. To build a list at runtime instead, see [Generated parameter options](/docs/cmp/configure/order-forms-and-pricing/parameters/generated-options/).

## Where options are defined

- **On a group or an environment.** Open the group or environment, then go to the **Parameters** tab.
- **On a blueprint.** See [Blueprint-level parameters](/docs/cmp/use/blueprints/customize-order-form/blueprint-level-parameters/).
- **On the parameter itself.** Go to **Admin** > **Parameters** and open the parameter. Its list sits under **Global Options**, or under **Static Options** when the parameter is an action input.

Global options are not supported for password parameters. For those, use a global default or set options at the environment, group, or blueprint level instead.

## Adding options on a group or environment

1. Open the group or environment and select the **Parameters** tab.
1. Select **Add** and select the parameter you want to configure.
1. Select **Add** to add the parameter to the group or environment.
1. In that parameter's row, select the **edit** icon in the Options column.
1. Add the values you want to offer, then select **Save**.

## How these options combine

When more than one place defines options for the same parameter, options on the blueprint take precedence. If the blueprint does not define options, the list is the **union** of the options on the group and the options on the environment.

Generated options, global defaults, and constraints also interact with these lists. For the full set of rules, see [Parameter options](/docs/cmp/configure/order-forms-and-pricing/parameters/parameter-options/).
