Add Multi-Line Text Area for Pipeline Inputs
T
Teal blue Mackerel
Summary:
When configuring pipeline variables to accept YAML or other lengthy input, the current single-line input box is impractical and cluttered. Providing a multi-line text area—or an expanded code-like editor—on the “Run Pipeline” window would improve usability and reduce input mistakes.
Problem Statement / Pain Point:
Large YAML or JSON content is difficult to edit and review in a cramped single-line field.
Users are more prone to syntax errors or formatting mistakes due to limited space.
The current flow diminishes productivity by forcing repeated scrolling or external text editors.
Proposed Solution:
Replace the single-line input with a multi-line text area that automatically expands, or add a toggle to switch to a code editor view.
Offer basic formatting or syntax-highlighting to ease reading and editing.
Benefits / Impact:
Improves user experience by making it simpler and quicker to provide or adjust complex inputs.
Decreases errors and rework caused by formatting issues.
Streamlines the pipeline setup process for teams working with large YAML configurations.
