Input

The Input section defines which data is passed to the AI agent at runtime. Inputs are configured through parameters, which act as structured placeholders and can be populated from chats, dataflows, triggers, or external integrations.

Correct input configuration is essential for predictable and reliable agent behavior.


Input parameters

Parameters define the inputs that are passed to the agent during execution.

  • Parameters are available within the system instruction and the runtime context

  • Each parameter consists of:

    • A name

    • A type

    • An optional description

    • An optional flag indicating the main chat input

Supported parameter types

  • Text

  • Boolean

  • Integer
