### `inputs` context
|
||||
|
||||
The `inputs` context contains information about the inputs of reusable workflow. The inputs are defined in [`workflow_call` event configuration](/actions/learn-github-actions/events-that-trigger-workflows#workflow-reuse-events). These inputs are passed from [`jobs.<job_id>.with`](/actions/learn-github-actions/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#jobsjob_idwith) in an external workflow.
