 =====Description=====
-This action works together with the [[transformations:call|Call]], [[transformations:iterate|Iterate]], [[transformations:iteratecolumns|Iterate columns]], [[transformations:iteratetable|Iterate table]], or [[transformations:repeat|Repeat]] actions. It obtains an input dataset from the module (or project) that called current module. If the current module was not called from another module (or project) then Input returns empty dataset.

-To simplify development, it is possible to paste test data from the clipboard into Input action, similar to the [[transformations:sandbox|Sandbox]] action. Typically, a small subset is pasted for use in designing the workflow. The pasted data is not saved and does not survive project re-opening.\\

-=====Populating the Input dataset from another project=====
+=====Remarks=====
-An Input action called from another project cannot be //automatically// populated with test data.  Either a .dset file export must be made from the calling dataset and imported into the Input action, or, the calling dataset must be copied to the clipboard and pasted into the receiving Input action.
