# Unrecognized​Render​Snippet​Arguments

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

***

## Examples

The following examples contain code snippets that either fail or pass this check. All examples refer to the following snippet that defines two parameters (one optional, indentified by square brackets; one required).

## 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 with an unrecognized argument:

## sections/section.liquid

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

### ✓ Pass

In the following example, the snippet is being rendered with recognized argument:

## sections/section.liquid

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