# Missing​Render​Snippet​Arguments

All required arguments defined in a snippet file's [LiquidDoc](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/themes/tools/liquid-doc) must be provided when rendering that snippet.

***

## Examples

The following examples contain code snippets that either pass or fail this check. Each example references this base snippet, which defines two parameters: one required and one optional (identified by square brackets).

## snippets/example-snippet.liquid

```liquid
{% doc %}
  @param {string} some_str
  @param {number} [some_num]
{% enddoc %}
```

### ✗ Fail

In the following example, the snippet is being rendered without the required argument:

## sections/section.liquid

```liquid
{% render 'example-snippet', some_num: 1 %}
```

### ✓ Pass

In the following example, the required argument is being provided, but the optional argument is not:

## sections/section.liquid

```liquid
{% render 'example-snippet', some_str: 'text' %}
```

### ✓ Pass

In the following example, the required argument and the optional argument is being provided:

## sections/section.liquid

```liquid
{% render 'example-snippet', some_str: 'text', some_num: 1 %}
```

***

## Options

The following example contains the default configuration for this check:

```yaml
