Input and Output Data Types
When configuring Wrk Actions, there are fields you need to fill out that are segregated into required and optional fields.
Each field is defined by one or more supported data types, which tells you what information needs to be provided in that field.
Our current supported data types are outlined below.
Long Text
Allows for free-form text entry with the ability to expand the text box (useful for large text entries such as the body text for an email or paragraphs). For more information on how to format Long Text fields, please refer to the following article.
