Use Automatic Output in Orchestrations

An orchestration has access to output for its stages, steps, and decisions. Query the status of any stage or step in the orchestration. Use output parameters from any step’s associated flow. In an orchestration configured to run on API version 58.0 and later, referenced automatic outputs that contain a record or a record collection are refreshed with their latest values each time the orchestration run resumes.

Add an element or resource to your orchestration.

When you build an orchestration, automatic outputs for every stage and step in that orchestration are universally available. This universal availability means that you can potentially use automatic output in your designed orchestration before it’s available in an orchestration run. So, when using automatic output, consider the order in which an orchestration executes its elements and resources.

When a background step runs synchronously and updates a record, the orchestration run doesn’t refresh $Record until it resumes. The stage can’t access updated field values after the step completes, and you can’t use them in stage or step exit criteria. To access a field value that a step updated, use the step’s automatic output instead of referencing $Record directly.

  1. In a resource, value, or input parameter field, select a stage or step from the dropdown list.
  2. Select the automatic output field from the dropdown list.
  3. Save your work.
