I can see that parameters can be defined for Commands defined using the Commands extension point. I can not define a value for these command parameters.

I can also define parameters under the Command element in the menus extension point when defining menu contributions. I can define a value for the parameter here.

Are the command parameters in Command different from parameters in menu contributions? If they are different how are they different?

Thanks

When you define a command, you define parameters that can be fed into
the command. ex: viewId

When you define a menu item or keybinding, you can specify the parameter
value to be used when that menu item or keybinding is executed.
