Parameter Behavior and Validation Notes

Describes rules for parameter behavior, validation requirements, optional fields, string length limits, and trigger output expectations in automation flows.

Parameter References

When referencing outputs from previous steps, the referenced step must come earlier in the automation flow.

Validation

All parameter values are validated against their defined schema.
Invalid input cause automation creation to fail.

Optional Parameters

Parameters marked as optional can be omitted without error.
Defaults may apply depending on the schema.

String Length Limits

Text fields may have maximum character limits, which vary by field type (for example, input field, name, ID).

Trigger Output Requirements

Trigger steps (for example, Log Trigger, Schedule Trigger) must include an output_example field.
This defines the data structure they provide to downstream steps.
