I'm wondering if we should update the above "How to specify parameters at runtime" section to use the runtime_params: resolver primarily and then mention that one can directly overwrite params too but it isn't recommended?

[ankatiyar]

You can use the {note} notation instead, to maintain consistency. Eg -

kedro/docs/source/configuration/parameters.md

Lines 71 to 73 in 63d7516

	```{note}
	You can use `add_feed_dict()` to inject any other entries into your `DataCatalog` as per your use case.
	```

@ankatiyar, thanks! I agree, but I tried that syntax, and it doesn’t support links. Since I have one link there, my suggestion is to remove the word "Note" and keep the current syntax. What do you think?

Do you mean we should merge the two articles into the first one and remove the advanced article?

I mean, keep the section in Advanced Configuration as it is but also mention the runtime_params: here in this section. Would like to see what others think.

It took me a while to understand the issue here. --params is something that Kedro supports since the beginning. It supports parameters ONLY with arbitary nested level, so I find the explanation here does not explains why user need to use $runtime_params.

$runtime_params is added later with OmegaConfigLoader to support overriding ANY config (i.e. catalog, a common use case is pointing to a different s3 bucket). So maybe the focus here should be, if user need to override configuration other than parameters, they should use $runtime_params?

+1 to what @noklam said 👍🏼

Thanks for the clarification, @noklam. I was also confused about why we added additional functionality for doing the same thing. I've made the updates and hope this works well. Requesting your re-reviews.
