Realtime Input Configurable
- Ben Clark
The majority of Rules you build in Rule Designer will start with a Realtime Input Step. This allows you to call the Rule and allows you to understand the Fields and Field formats that need to be passed to the Rule.
You may need to build Input Templates for your use case specific Rules. To provide a quick start we have a Public Template called Realtime Input Configurable. This contains all the Fields that are required for a Rule containing a Get CXID Public template to work. This can be downloaded, altered and re-uploaded to create your own input templates.
