    About this task

    The task input in the start node holds a reference of the record that an agent is working on in a workspace. For example, if you want to attach a KB article to a case, you would need the case number.

    You can edit or extend existing decision trees in the Core UI but you can no longer create them. Use Decision Tree Builder to create new decision trees. For more information, see Configuring decision trees in Decision Tree Builder.
