FAQ

Questions about List Boards.

What does the List Boards action do in Canny?

Returns every board in the connected workspace with name, slug, post count. Useful for resolving board IDs at workflow-build time when creating new posts.

What inputs does List Boards require?

List Boards has no required inputs. Sensible defaults are applied if you leave fields blank.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if Canny returns an error?

The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.

Does List Boards support batch operations?

Yes. Run List Boards inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Canny's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
