Workflow Steps

Endpoints for managing workflow steps in Linkbreakers. Workflow steps define the behavior of links, such as redirection destinations and data collection flows.

array<string>

Child workflow step IDs (steps that this step can transition to, UUID)

createdAt

string (date-time)

string (enum)

The event action type for this workflow step

Allowed values
