Get State

Get State reads a value saved by an earlier step or run of the same workflow on the same runtime. Use it to remember a checkpoint or a previous result.

Try it step by step#

1. Set Key to greeting and run Get State before anything has saved that key.
2. Add Set State with the same key and the value Hello, then a second Get State.
3. Run the workflow twice and compare the first read in each run.

What to expect#

A missing key returns {"key":"greeting","found":false,"value":null}. After saving, it returns found: true and value: "Hello".

Things to check#

• Check found to distinguish a missing key from a saved null value.
• State belongs to the workflow and runtime. An imported copy starts with its own State, and moving execution to another runtime does not move stored values.
