FAQ
Questions about Get Runway Task.
What does the Get Runway Task action do in Runway?
Polls a task by ID; returns the video URL when complete. Configure webhookUrl on the generation request for production push notification.
What inputs does Get Runway Task require?
Required: Task ID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Runway returns an error?
The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.
Does Get Runway Task support batch operations?
Yes. Run Get Runway Task inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Runway's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
