Hi,

i'm trying to create a set of playbooks to unit test other playbooks.

 

is it possible to run a playbook without providing an event id?

 

thanks.

@ansir a playbook must have either a container id or artifact id to run against. 

You can have an empty event generated by a timer app which will kick a playbook (set to active) off then you could populate the event before running through the playbook(s) you are wanting to test!

 

Hope this helps! Happy SOARing!
