Running a Sequence (Part 2)
There are two modes in which a sequence can be run.
- by passing the ID that identifies a stored version (ID mode)
- by passing the JSON directly (Playground mode)
The first approach is used when you go directly to the sequence or run from an automation.
The second approach is used in the playground and when editing.
In most cases this difference is not important but there are two consequences:
- Runs in Playground more are not recorded and therefore they are not visible in your history.
- The ID is an implicit input (sequence_id) to a run in ID mode. For advanced uses (e.g. where we are creating sequences and adding them to a collection using our API). We salute you if you are at that stage.
