Throw Error

Immediately terminates the workflow with a specified error message, setting the status to a deliberate stop.

Purpose

Use this completion node within conditional branches to enforce business rules and validation gates. When execution reaches this node, the workflow stops with a failure state and surfaces the provided message to the caller. It is the standard way to communicate intentional termination — for example, when a required precondition is not met or a user-defined validation check has failed.

Inputs
