Step Palette

Category	Steps
Infrastructure	IaC Deploy, Configuration Deploy
Actions	Script, HTTP Request
Flow Control	Approval, Wait, Condition, Loop
Notifications	Email, Slack, Webhook

Workflow Settings

Setting	Description
Timeout	Max execution time for entire workflow
Concurrency	Allow multiple runs simultaneously
Failure Action	Stop all, continue, or retry failed steps
Notifications	Email/Slack on success or failure

Variables

Reference variables in step configurations using ${...} syntax.

Variable	Description
`${workflow.name}`	Workflow name
`${workflow.run_id}`	Current execution ID
`${trigger.type}`	How workflow was triggered
`${trigger.branch}`	Git branch (if git trigger)
`${steps.step_name.output}`	Output from a previous step
`${env.VARIABLE}`	Environment variable

Parallel Steps

Connect one step to multiple next steps to run them in parallel.

              ┌─────────┐
        ┌────▶│ Step B  │────┐
┌───────┤     └─────────┘    │     ┌─────────┐
│ Step A│                    ├────▶│ Step D  │
└───────┤     ┌─────────┐    │     └─────────┘
        └────▶│ Step C  │────┘
              └─────────┘

Steps B and C run simultaneously
Step D waits for both to complete

Validation

The editor validates your workflow before saving:

Error	Description
Disconnected step	Step has no connections
Cycle detected	Circular dependency found
Missing config	Required field is empty
Invalid reference	Variable doesn't exist
