Entity

Entities can retain information (references to data or files) input and output from endpoints by adding them. Since they can retain referenced data from input and output, subsequent processing can be freely combined with functions, pipelines, triggers, and more.

Types of Entities​

There are a total of four types of entities.

NameDescription
Data- Any data - Maximum data size is 16MB
Data (Layered)Any data that has been layered
File- Can store files - Files are saved in local storage. Although there are no specifications limiting the storage capacity, it depends on the cluster's storage capacity. - Metadata is stored in the Entity itself, allowing for awareness of changes. - The current save destination for FileEntityFile cannot be changed and is stored locally in the Pod.
