These chapters explain the mechanics that many Jetstack features depend on. They are not optional background reading. They are the platform rules that make the builder features work.
In This Section
- Expressions Explains the dynamic expression formats, evaluation pipeline, context stack, and common implementation uses.
- Code Processor Functions Explains the built-in runtime functions available inside expressions.
- Expression Parsing And Shortcodes Explains variable parsing, utility shortcodes, table-column translation, and parser-level post-processing.
- Scope Resolvers Explains how automation and canvas builders discover and resolve available context.
- Automation Triggers Explains how trigger resources, selectors, events, and trigger parameters work in the Automation Builder.
- Automation Actions Explains the available action types, their input parameters, endpoints, and provided parameters in the Automation Builder.
- Query Parameters Explains the runtime state model for filters, columns, sorting, tags, folders, and pagination.
- Filter Operators Explains the property-family operator sets used by queries and views.
When To Read This Section
Read this section when:
- a configuration field supports expressions
- a query filter behaves differently depending on property type
- a canvas or automation builder offers scope-driven value selection
- a view keeps state such as visible columns, tags, or folders
- a permission rule depends on query semantics
