Storage: Write step

step_type: storage_write

Inserts a new item into a Storage. The values you provide are validated against that Storage's schema before the item is created.

Configuration

Field	Type	Required	Description
storage	string	required	The Storage to write into, identified by its machine name.
values	object	required	The item's field values. The available fields — and their types — match the selected Storage's schema, and are shown once storage is set.

Output

The step's output includes the new item's id and its saved data, so later steps (or a Storage: Update / Storage: Delete step) can reference it — e.g. steps.storage_write_1.id.

When to use it

• Saving a custom record — an order note, a catalog entry, a log — as part of a workflow run.
• Building up your own dataset from incoming trigger data over time.

Note

Required fields must be present in values, or the step fails validation. Field values are expression-aware, so you can populate them from trigger or step data — e.g. trigger.payload.title. See the Expressions guide.
