Question
When a flow runs an action, it generates a runtime value, which stays the same for the duration of the flow. What is the name of this runtime value?
Options
- ATrigger runtime value
- BSequence runtime value
- CStarting runtime value
- DData pill runtime value
- EInput runtime value
Explanation
The runtime value generated by a flow action, which persists throughout the flow, is known as a data pill.
Common mistakes.
- A. While a trigger provides initial runtime values, the general term for values generated by any action (not just the trigger) that persist for the flow's duration is a data pill.
- B. Sequence runtime value is not a standard term used in Flow Designer for persistent values.
- C. Starting runtime value is not a standard term used in Flow Designer for persistent values.
- E. Input runtime value refers to a value being provided to an action, not the generated output value that then persists throughout the flow.
