+7How do I change the sample data in expression builder for subsequent actions in playbook development?
I’ve selected the drawing pin icon to set the json to the actions sample but if place a condition step to after to check values from that result it defaults to the null sample data.
Am I missing something very obvious here?

Hey
The only way to change the sample data in the Expression Builder is by overwriting it in the IDE.
And it needs to be done for every step, but the structure of placeholder is predictable, so you can also try to create it just manually. Start with a simple example and then it will be more clear, how to do it even without the expression builder.
Still, it’s definitely something that we want to embed as part of playbook building experience, so I will check with the internal team what can be done. Thanks!

Try saving the playbook after pressing the pin button during playbook simulation for your desired action, reload the playbook and you should have the expression builder placeholder set.

Nice! I can’t tell if it was a time thing but this seems to be working now, I can see that JSON data for future expression checks in the development of this PB. Thank you!
