FAQ
Questions about List Authors.
What does the List Authors action do in Typeflo?
Lists all authors on the Typeflo blog with bio, avatar, and slug. Use it to populate an author picker before creating a post.
What inputs does List Authors require?
List Authors has no required inputs. Sensible defaults are applied if you leave fields blank.
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 Typeflo 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 List Authors support batch operations?
Yes. Run List Authors inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Typeflo's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
