Host → Start
AI-generatedSummary
Initiates a host start operation within a specified Nerdio account, optionally waiting for completion.
Inputs
- accountId (required) — The account to operate on. Choose from the list, or specify an ID using an expression.
- hostId (required) — The host to operate on. Choose from the list, or specify an ID using an expression.
- waitForCompletion — Whether to wait for the job to complete before returning (default: true).
- maxWaitSeconds — Maximum time to wait for job completion (default: 300 seconds).
Output shape
A single item containing the response from the start operation (potentially updated with polling results if waitForCompletion is enabled).
If waitForCompletion is enabled, the operation polls the Nerdio API until the job status is 'Completed' or 'Succeeded', or until maxWaitSeconds is reached.
Examples
Example 1: Start a specific host and wait for it to be ready.
Select a host from the list and keep default settings.
Example 2: Start a host but do not wait for completion (fire-and-forget).
Set 'Wait for Completion' to false.
