Hi ​@vanitharaj1208,

 

In the Step Selection (once you go into a playbook, at the top left), there is ‘Blocks’, which you can use to attach a block to a particular step in a playbook.

Alternatively, in the swagger you can use the endpoint /api/external/v1/playbooks/AttachenestedWorkflowToCase, to attach a block to a case.

Kind Regards,

Ayman

There is not a prebuilt action to attach a block to an alert. You would need to attach a playbook that included the block.

Unfortunately it looks like this is not possible with either pre built or custom actions.

You can attach a block to run as if it were a playbook using the ‘Attach Playbook to Alert’ action from the tools powerup, however this will not allow you to provide manual input to the block.

You can call a “Initialization playbook” that will only contain your block, and set it to “Manual” instead of “Auto”, and then the users will gonna need to fill in the block`s inputs.

How do you set a manual trigger for a playbook or a block?
