Container Input (Variable)

Workflow AbstractionWorkflow Invocation

Like

This node receives flow variables from an external caller (i.e. the Call Workflow (Table Based) node or an external REST client) and makes them available to the workflow. A configured parameter makes the Container Input (Variable) visible from the external caller and enables the external caller to send the variables to the Container Input (Variable) node.

If no variables are send to this node and template variables are defined, their value will be exposed to the workflow.
