Variable dataPillConst

Type Declaration

• • <T>(_expression: T, _type: FlowDataType): DataPillReturn<T>

  • Wrapper function for datapill expressions that provides type information. This function wraps PropertyAccess expressions and associates them with their data type for proper serialization to Flow Designer XML format.

    At runtime, this function is a passthrough that returns the expression unchanged. The type information is used at compile/build time by the build plugins.

    Special handling: TableAwareRecord types from OutputsWithDotwalk are accepted without strict type checking, as they represent expanded reference types with dotwalk support.

    Type Parameters

    • T

      The type of the expression being wrapped

    Parameters

    • _expression: T

      The datapill expression (e.g., params.trigger.current.active)

    • _type: FlowDataType

      The data type of the datapill value

    Returns DataPillReturn<T>

    The same expression (passthrough at runtime)

    Example

    // Boolean trigger field
    wfa.dataPill(params.trigger.current.active, 'boolean')
    
    // String flow variable
    wfa.dataPill(params.flowVariables.userName, 'string')
    
    // Reference field with dot-walking
    wfa.dataPill(params.trigger.current.assigned_to.email, 'string')
    
    // Reference field with TableAwareRecord (from OutputsWithDotwalk)
    wfa.dataPill(params.flowVariables.userRef, 'reference')
    
    // Action output reference
    wfa.dataPill(createIncident.record, 'reference')
    
    // In template literals
    `Hello ${wfa.dataPill(params.flowVariables.userName, 'string')}`
