Enhance Workflow Flexibility with Dropdown Selections in Trigger Parameters #1723

Open hirowa opened 1 month ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Currently, when running a workflow, the options for entering parameters are limited to boolean, JSON, text, or number inputs. This limitation often requires users to manually recall and input specific values, which can be error-prone and inefficient, especially in environments where parameters are frequently modified.

Describe the solution you'd like I propose integrating dropdown menu options for the trigger parameters in workflows. Dropdown menus would allow users to select from predefined options, significantly reducing the likelihood of input errors and streamlining the workflow setup process. This enhancement would make workflows more user-friendly and facilitate quicker configuration changes.

Describe alternatives you've considered An alternative to this enhancement has been to clone existing workflows and make minor adjustments for different scenarios. However, this approach leads to a proliferation of workflows, making the system messy and challenging to scale effectively. It complicates management and updates, as changes need to be replicated across multiple cloned workflows, increasing the risk of inconsistencies and maintenance overhead.
