# Function **Introduction** The "Function" trigger allows you to define a custom function within your automation. This trigger is useful for encapsulating reusable logic and enabling other parts of your automation to call and execute it. **Configuration** * **Inputs**: A list of input parameters that the function can accept. Each input includes: * **Name**: The name of the input, used to identify it. * **Schema**: The data type of the input, selected from a list of user-definable types. This parameter is required. * **Return**: Specifies the value that the function will return after execution. This parameter is optional and can be defined based on your automation's needs. **Outputs** * **Inputs**: An object representing the function's inputs that are received when the function is called. This output is generated only if you define inputs in the configuration. This trigger enables modular and reusable code within your automation workflows, making it easier to manage complex logic. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
