Parameters
Parameters provide the ability to customize JSON input by adding a collection of key-value pairs as input to a task. These values can either be static or dynamically selected from the JSON input or the context object using specific paths.
Context Object is a unique JSON entity containing details about the state's execution. For further insights, refer to the Context Object section.
Parameters are available for the following states:
- Function
- Webhook
- Task Engine
For better understanding, let's consider the following standard JSON input as an example:
{"employee_details": {"emp_name": "John Doe","emp_id": "357","email": "john.doe@example.com","position": "Software Engineer"},"department": "Engineering","start_date": "2024-04-01","manager": "Jane Smith"}
{"get_employee_details": {"type": "function","next": "End","start": true,"function_id": "<function_name>","parameters": {"name": "$.employee_details.emp_name","ID": "$.employee_details.emp_id""execution_id": "$$.execution.id","auth_key": "ec20c6b7-e117-4551-8395-e9189b0b738d"}}}
With the given parameter configuration, the following JSON will be passed:
{"name": "John Doe","ID": "357","execution_id": "<execution_id of state>","auth_key": "ec20c6b7-e117-4551-8395-e9189b0b738d"}
