SETS AN OBJECT ATTRIBUTE

Sets the value of a named attribute on a platform object (simulation, physical test, HPC job, workflow, attachment, or user). Use this worker whenever a workflow step needs to programmatically update or annotate metadata on any supported object type.

When to use

Tagged: attachment, hpcjob, object_metadata, physicaltest, platform, set_attribute, simulation, user.

Inputs

Label ID Type Default Required Description
Object Type obj_type select The type of platform object whose attribute will be updated; select one of: solverresultset (Simulation), physicaltest, hpcjob, workflow, attachment, or user.
Object Id obj_id text The unique platform identifier (integer or UUID string) of the target object on which the attribute will be set.
Attribute Name attr_name text The exact name of the attribute (field) to be written on the target object, e.g. ‘status’, ‘description’, or any custom metadata key.
New Attribute Value attr_value text The new value to assign to the specified attribute; always passed as a string — the platform will coerce to the appropriate underlying type.

Outputs

Label ID Type Description
Attribute Name attr_name text Echo of the attribute name that was written, confirming which field was updated on the target object.
Attribute Value attr_value text Echo of the attribute value that was persisted, allowing downstream workers to verify or chain on the written value.
