Inputs

Input	Type	Notes
`inputFormat`	`json` \| `xml`	Required.
`outputFormat`	`json` \| `text`	Required. json: the rendered text must be exactly one JSON value. text: the text exactly as rendered.
`content`	any	Read by the template as `content`. JSON mode: any JSON value, such as `@triggerBody()`. XML mode: a string holding one XML document, such as `@{triggerBody()}`. Binary `$content` envelopes are rejected.
`templateSource`	`deployed` \| `inline`	Required.
`templateName`	string	Deployed templates: the path under the template folder, such as `orders/order-to-erp.liquid`. Can be an expression.
`template`	string	Inline templates: the template text. Inline templates cannot include partials.
`parameters`	object	Read by the template as `parameters`. See Parameters and variables.
`enableScripts`	boolean	Allows the template's `{% csharp %}` block. Default false.
`allowedFunctionAliases`	string array	Functions this action may call with `CallFunction`. Default none.
`xmlNamespaces`	object	Prefix to namespace URI, for `XmlValue` and `XmlValues`.
`timeoutSeconds`	integer	Deadline for the whole action; can only lower the host maximum (60 s by default).

Put retryPolicy inside inputs. Next to inputs, the runtime ignores it and applies its default policy.

}

result in JSON mode is the parsed value, typed for later actions: body('Compose_using_Liquid')?['result']?['lines']?[0]?['sku']. In text mode it is the text.
renderedText is always the exact rendered text.
contentType is application/json; charset=utf-8 or text/plain; charset=utf-8. Set your own in a Response for CSV, HTML or XML.
templateHash is a SHA-256 over the template, its partials, and the engine and policy versions.
diagnostics has timings, compile cache hits, Function call counts and the correlation ID.
