OutputValues

yaml

type: "io.kestra.plugin.core.output.OutputValues"

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.
