Obtener Variable de Flujo

The Get Flow Variable component is designed to retrieve the value of a specific variable from the flow parameters within your AI workflow. This component acts as a utility tool, allowing other components or agents in the workflow to dynamically access and utilize variables that have been set earlier in the process.

Purpose and Functionality

This component is particularly useful when building modular and dynamic AI workflows. By enabling access to variables stored in the flow, it allows for more flexible decision-making, conditional logic, and data reuse across different stages of your automation or AI process. For example, you might want to retrieve a user’s previous input, a configuration parameter, or the result of a prior computation.

Inputs

The component exposes several configuration fields:

Input Details

• Input Variable Name is the main field you’ll use. Enter the exact name of the variable you want to access.
• Tool Name and Tool Description are optional and generally used for documentation or when integrating with agents that leverage tool metadata.
• Verbose can be toggled on to output detailed logs, which may be helpful for debugging complex flows.

Outputs

When the component runs, it produces several possible outputs:

• Variable Value if exists: Returns the current value of the variable you asked for.
• Variable does not exist: Informs you that the requested variable was not found in the flow.
• Tool: Provides the tool object, which can be used by agent-based workflows that need to interact with or understand the capabilities of the component.

Why Use This Component?

• Dynamic Data Retrieval: Access and reuse values set earlier in your workflow without hardcoding them.
• Error Handling: Easily detect when expected variables are missing, enabling robust workflow logic.
• Agent Interoperability: Supplies metadata and tool objects to facilitate agent-driven workflows or tool orchestration.
• Debugging Support: Optional verbose output can help you troubleshoot workflow execution.

Typical Use Cases

• Passing user input or computed values between steps in a conversational AI.
• Checking for the existence of configuration or context variables before taking actions.
• Supplying agents with access to relevant parameters as they plan or execute tasks.

By integrating the Get Flow Variable component, your workflows become more adaptable, maintainable, and capable of handling complex scenarios where context and data persistence are crucial.
