# Cloud Function
|
|
|
|
Cloud functions are logic components that run in the cloud and not on the client like other logic components. The **Cloud Function** node is how you initiate a call to a cloud function component. Learn more about how to use cloud functions in this [guide](/docs/guides/cloud-logic/introduction).
|
|
|
|
<div className="ndl-image-with-background l">
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
You will first need to pick the cloud function that you want to call with this node.
|
|
|
|
<div className="ndl-image-with-background l">
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
After you have picked the cloud function, the **Cloud Function** node will receive the input parameters and output result parameters defined in the cloud function so you can hook them up to the logic of your application.
|
|
|
|
A cloud function can either return a **Success** or **Failure** response, this will result in the corresponding output signal on the **Cloud Function** node. You can use this to trigger different flows in your logic.
|
|
|
|
<div className="ndl-image-with-background l">
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
If a **Failure** signal is emitted you can also use the **Error** output that will contain the error message sent from the cloud function.
|
|
|
|
If a **Success** signal is sent the result parameters will be available as outputs on the **Cloud Function** node.

## Inputs
|
|
|
|
| Data | Description |
|
|
| --------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
|
|
| <span className="ndl-data">Function</span> | <##input:functionName##>The cloud function component that this node will call.<##input##> |
|
|
|
|
### Parameters
|
|
The **Cloud Function** node will receive all parameters specified in the [Request](/nodes/cloud-functions/request) node in the cloud function component as inputs. When the <span className="ndl-signal">Call</span> signal is received the values on the inputs will be sent to the cloud funciton.
|
|
|
|
| Signal | Description |
|
|
| ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| <span className="ndl-signal">Call</span> | <##input:call##>Send a signal on this input to issue the request to the cloud function.<##input##> |
|
|
|
|
## Outputs
|
|
|
|
| Data | Description |
|
|
| ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
|
|
| <span className="ndl-data">Error</span> | <##output:error##>If the cloud function results in an error status, this output will contain the error message. <##output##> |
|
|
|
|
### Result
|
|
The **Cloud Function** node will receive all result parameters specified in any [Response](/nodes/cloud-functions/response) node in the cloud function component that is called. When the cloud function completes and retuns a **Sucess** status, any result parameters sent back will be available on these outputs.

|
|
|
| Signal | Description |
|
|
| ------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| <span className="ndl-signal">Success</span> | <##output:success##>This is sent if the cloud function returns a **Success** status.<##output##> |
|
|
| <span className="ndl-signal">Failure</span> | <##output:failure##>This is sent if the cloud function returns a **Failure** status.<##output##> |
