OutputValues
Output one or more values.

Output one or more values.

You can use this task to return some outputs and pass them to downstream tasks. It's helpful for parsing and returning values from a task. You can then access these outputs in your downstream tasks using the expression {{ outputs.mytask_id.values.my_output_name }} and you can see them in the Outputs tab. The values can be strings, numbers, arrays, or any valid JSON object.
