Can the automator accept input values from a CLI bash script?

Hello - in our process, we need to create multiple sub-accounts in one process. Instead of manually changing the parameters file each time for the sub-account name, etc, can we gather these values input from the user within a simple bash script (which kicks off the automator script) to contain things like the customer directory, sub-account name, region, landscape etc to help eliminate manual editing of the .json files?

Yes it can. This section in the documentation gives you an idea to see the parameters and transfer them: https://github.com/SAP-samples/btp-setup-automator/blob/main/docs/README.md#available-parameters.

Example:

btpsa -myemail '[email protected]' -globalaccount 'ID of the account' 

Having said that I think that using scripts has downsides compared to a version-controlled declaration of the setup via usecase files.
