Merge Fields

Workflow Merge Fields

Everything in the workflow can be set to use merge fields. This makes it easy to change a property that is set to the same value in many steps. During the running of a workflow the merge field placeholders will be replaced by the values from the MergeFields object. Note that the placeholder uses { } to specify that it is a merge field placeholder. Workflow JSON extract with two merge fields set:

{
  "WorkflowName": "Unit_test_workflow",
  "WorkflowVersion": "1.0",
  "MergeFields": {
    "reqbin_post_url": "https://reqbin.com/echo/post/json",
    "reqbin_callout_seconds" : "30"
  },
  "Steps": [
    {
      "StepNumber": 1,
      "StepId": "reqbin step 1",
      "SubSteps": [
        2,
        3
      ],
      "WaitForAllParents": true,
      "CalloutUrl": "{reqbin_post_url}",
      "CalloutTimeoutSeconds": "{reqbin_callout_seconds}",
      ..etc..
    }
  ]
