# Pass multivalued properties with an Exchange activity

To set a multivalued property using an Exchange activity, you must use a specific parameter format.

## About this task

The Optional parameters shared input variable allows you to set [multivalued properties](http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb684908%28v=exchg.150%29.aspx).

## Procedure

-   To set a multivalued property, replacing any existing values, use this format: "`PropertyName`":"\(`value1`, `value2`, `value3`\)"

-   To add values, use this format: "PropertyName":"+\(`value1`, `value2`, `value3`\);"

-   To remove values, use this format: "PropertyName":"-\(`value1`, `value2`, `value3`\);"

-   To both add and remove values, use this format: "PropertyName":"-\(`value1`, `value2`, `value3`\);+\(`value1`, `value2`, `value3`\);"
