Workflows

add-vcl-snippet
Clone a version, add a VCL snippet, and activate the clone.
Clones the supplied version, creates a VCL snippet bound to the chosen subroutine on the cloned version, and activates the clone.
3 steps inputs: apiToken, priority, serviceId, snippetContent, snippetName, snippetType, versionId outputs: active, clonedVersion, snippetName
1
cloneVersion
Clone the supplied version into a new editable draft version.
2
createSnippet
Add the VCL snippet to the cloned version.
3
activateVersion
Activate the cloned version so the snippet takes effect.

  title: Fastly Add a VCL Snippet
  summary: Clone the active version, insert a VCL snippet, then activate the new version.
  description: >-
    VCL snippets inject small pieces of custom logic into a Fastly subroutine
    without uploading a full custom VCL file. This workflow clones the live
    version into a draft, adds a snippet bound to a chosen subroutine on the
    clone, and activates the new version so the logic takes effect. Every step
    spells out its request inline so the flow can be read and executed without
    opening the underlying OpenAPI description.
