Configuration and behavior
| Parameter | Notes |
|---|---|
| Clip ID * | The CatDV clip to read, as a whole positive number. Static or from earlier workflow data. |
| Retry window | 2m by default; accepts 1 second through 1 hour. |
Ports: Retrieved and Error.
Get Clip reads the whole clip. Nothing is selected beforehand: every built-in property and every custom metadata field CatDV returned becomes available to later steps as a named value (Named CatDV values).
Outputs: action, clip_id, result, built_in_field_count, user_defined_field_count. For example, ${steps.get_clip.clip_id} is 42 and ${steps.get_clip.result} is retrieved.
In a Workflow Test this step really reads the clip. Nothing is created, changed, or deleted.
