Body
true: user-triggerable custom event; false: native platform event, replayable only from history.
Provide name of trigger.
Normalized execution target type used by runtime dispatch.
JOB_TEMPLATE, AGENT, PLATFORM_OPERATION Normalized execution target id aligned with targetType.
Active.
Event routing name without an implicit prefix. Native types use the platform event catalogue; custom types use a user-defined name.
Runtime input for Job targets, exposed through api.input("templateInputs"). Defaults to {}. Override is shallow; Deep Override recursively merges objects. Automation keys take precedence; arrays and null replace whole values. Does not change the event message, Job execution policy, concurrency or retry settings.
{ "export": { "format": "csv" } }
override: shallow overlay onto Job templateInputs; deep_override: recursively overlay objects, replacing arrays and retaining null as a value; automation keys win in both modes; replace: replace all Job templateInputs, including clearing them with {}. Defaults to override.
override, deep_override, replace "override"
Category.
Description.
Optional resource metadata. Values may use any JSON type. Maximum 16 KiB and 64 top-level keys. Top-level keys starting with "__" are reserved for backend use.
Optional reserved target version metadata. Ignored for AGENT targets, which always execute the current Agent definition.
Optional normalized target configuration payload reserved for future target-specific execution settings.
Optional FilterNode-compatible event message filter evaluated against { type, message } before scheduling the target.
Response
Job scheduled.
