What is the Error Step?

The Error Step allows you to terminate the workflow and display a custom error message and error code to users.

The error is composed of two parts:

  1. Error Code: A custom identifier for the error, which can be used for tracking and debugging in the workflow API

  2. Error Message: A custom message displayed in the AirOps UI, describing the error with instructions on how to resolve it.

Example use case

Let's consider a scenario where we want to ensure that user input does not contain any sensitive content. We can configure the Error Step to throw the following error:

  1. Error Code: SENSITIVE_CONTENT_ERROR

  2. Error Message: Your input contains sensitive information. Please remove any confidential data before proceeding.
