Freeform Text

For all Runbook steps that aren't directly tied to an integration offered by FireHydrant, Freeform Runbook steps are your solution. When you start configuring Runbooks inside of FireHydrant, most of your steps will use freeform text.

To add a freeform text Runbook step:

  1. In the left nav, click Runbooks
  2. Open the Runbook where you want to add the step.
  3. in the Available steps section, select the Freeform Text step. (You can find this step quickly by using the term "text" in the Search field.
