What an output is

An output is the data a step produces after executing. It can be:
  • A structured dataset — a table, JSON object, or list of records
  • A file — a PDF, CSV, or document
  • A confirmation — a record that an action was taken (email sent, row written, message posted)
  • A variable — a value passed to the next step

​
How outputs flow between steps

Felix automatically passes each step’s output to the next step that needs it. You don’t need to wire anything manually — describe what data a step should use and Felix handles the connection. 
Step 1: Extract director names from the insolvency filings
Step 2: Search @LinkedIn for each director name
Step 3: Write the LinkedIn profiles to @GoogleSheets

​
Final outputs

The last step in a workflow produces the final output of a run. This is typically:
  • A file written to a connected service (@GoogleSheets, @GoogleDrive, @Notion)
  • A notification sent via a connector (@Slack, @Gmail)
  • A document generated and returned in the run view

​
Run logs

Every run produces a full log. For each step you can see:
  • What input the step received
  • What the step did
  • What output it produced
  • How long it took
  • Any errors or warnings
Run logs are stored in your workflow’s run history. You can access them at any time from your dashboard.

​
Downloading outputs

File outputs — CSVs, PDFs, documents — can be downloaded directly from the run view. Outputs written to connected services are available in those services immediately after the run completes.

​
Tips

  • Check intermediate outputs when debugging. If your final output is wrong, expand each step’s log to find where the data diverged from what you expected.
  • Be specific about what data you’re referencing. “The flagged contracts from step 2” is clearer than “the previous output”.
  • Write final outputs to a connected service. Storing results in @GoogleSheets or @Notion makes them accessible to your team without needing access to Felix.
