Configuration
7 fields, 2 required. A dotted path is a nested object and name[] an array of objects — the editor renders the same tree.
| Field | Type | Required | Default | Constraints | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
space_id Numeric id of the space to act in, from Settings → Space. Overrides the default space on the connection. | string | No | — | — | 123456 |
story_id Numeric id of the story, as Storyblok reports it in a listing. | string | Yes | — | — | 1234567 |
story The whole story object to write. Storyblok replaces the entry with this, so start from what storyblok.get_story returned. | object | Yes | — | — | {"content":{"body":[],"component":"page"},"name":"Pricing"} |
publish Publish the story after saving it. Note that false does not unpublish — use Storyblok: Unpublish Story for that. | boolean | No | false | — | — |
force_update Save even when another user holds a lock on the story. Workflow locks are not overridden. | boolean | No | false | — | — |
lang Comma-separated language codes to act on, e.g. es,pt-br. Leave empty for the whole story; per-language publishing must be enabled on the space. | string | No | — | — | es,pt-br |
release_id Numeric id of a release to attach this write to. Leave empty to write to the current content. | number | No | — | ≥ 1 | — |
Example configuration
Every value below is the contract’s own example or default — nothing invented.

In a technical demo we add the Storyblok connection, drop the node on the canvas and let Workflow Health pre-flight it before the first real run.
