title: Attribute parameter from <action> element - equivalent in Struts 2
body: <p>In Struts1 you can use the attribute <strong>parameter</strong> from    element(struts-config.xml) and access it's value within the action class via the <code>actionMapping.getParameter()</code> method. For actions requiring multiple steps, the parameter is often used to indicate which step the mapping is associated
  with.</p>
  
  <p>Ex:</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-xml prettyprint-override"><code>&lt;action path="\something\Step1"
  type="actions.SomethingAction"
  parameter="step1"&gt; ...
  
  &lt;action path="\something\Step2"
  type="actions.SomethingAction"
  parameter="step2"&gt; ...
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Which is the alternative solution for Struts2?</p>
