Run Context
Basic information about the flow’s state and the user invoking the flow is provided through a "virtual", read-only property available at the JSONPath $._context.
This path may be used in a path for a Parameters value on an action or Pass state type, or in expressions which are evaluated when generating Parameters values as described above.
This allows the flow to use these values as necessary for passing into actions as parameters.
As this is a read-only value, the _context cannot be overwritten by using the path in a ResultPath on any state.
The _context value is itself an object
containing the following properties:
Property name |
Description |
flow_id |
The id of the flow that is executing |
run_id |
The unique id assigned to this execution of the flow |
username |
The Globus Auth username for the user invoking the flow |
The email address for the user invoking the flow |
|
user_id |
The Globus Auth user id for the user invoking the flow (in URN format) |
identities |
A list of all identities associated with the user invoking the flow (in URN format) |
token_info |
A child object containing the fields |
The token_info fields are defined as follows:
-
exp: Timestamp, measured in the number of seconds since UTC January 1, 1970, indicating when this token will expire. -
iat: Timestamp, measured in the number of seconds since UTC January 1, 1970, indicating when this token was originally issued. -
nbf: Timestamp, measured in the number of seconds since UTC January 1, 1970, indicating when this token is not to be used before.
