I had some functionality that I turned into a component. This functionality includes the execution of a global workflow that picks up data from input fields in the functionality. It worked fine until I turned it into a component - now the global workflow that is being executed from within the component doesn’t have access to the component’s input fields.

How to solve please? Thanks.

Figured it out. I copied the global workflow into the component as a component workflow. Too right maaaaaaaaate. 👍
