Data Transformer
Parse given data using various UNIX shell utilities, such as sed, grep, jq, etc.
JSON parser
Parses the given raw data as JSON and outputs it directly to the step context. Supports using output from generic Docker images as steps (e.g., aws-cli). If no input is provided, the parser will use the previous step's output as input.
Print a Message to stdout
Print a message to stdout.
Strip HTML Tags
