# Run Python Procedure

## Run Python Procedure Actions

### Process / ProcessPython

Passes the requested event to a Python interface for processing. Event metadata fields applicable for this action are as follows:

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Table" %}

| Field          | Definition                             | Example    | Default |
| -------------- | -------------------------------------- | ---------- | ------- |
| Input Element  | Json path of payload input to pass     | parameters | -       |
| Output Element | Json path for output to add on payload | $          | -       |
| {% endtab %}   |                                        |            |         |

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.rierino.com/devops/api-event-and-process-flows/configuring-saga-steps/event-step/custom-code-actions/run-python-procedure.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
