[QGIS-Developer] Running vs triggering/opening a custom process via Python

Hi,

Sorry if this is a bit of a simple question.

I have created a script in the processing toolbox and it opens a dialogue box when you double click on it (as you would expect). Given that many users may not understand or even open the processing toolbox I want to trigger the script using a button in my custom plugin.

I know you can use processing.run(script/model, parameters) but I don't know the parameters and I don't want to recreate the dialogue box in my plugin.

Is there a python command to simply trigger/open a process to run (replicate clicking on it in the toolbox)?

Thanks,
Paul
