Request Manual Input from User
Celonis Process Automation allows to request manual input from a user during Skill execution.
This enables human-in-the-loop automations in which some parts of the Skill are automated while the user can still provide additional input before executing.
Overview
Activate the toggle "Request manual input from user".
Select the fields for which you would like to request manual input from the user and check the checkbox "Manual input".

Example: Send Emails
Create a new Skill with e.g. Action Engine Sensor
Add an Action e.g. Email by Celonis
Activate the toggle "Request manual input from user"
Fill in the fields To, Subject and Body
Select "Manual input" for To and Body
Publish
As a result, a user in the Action Engine will see the Execution Modal popping up when executing the Action. In the Modal he/she will see all prefilled values and can adjust them if necessary.
