Dependency injection
Passing configuration and credentials into a workflow from outside rather than hardcoding them. Makes workflows portable across environments the same workflow runs in staging and production by swapping the injected credentials, not editing the code.
How PURIST uses this
This concept is built into every automation we deploy.
When PURIST builds your automation, Dependency injection is not an optional consideration it is part of the production standard. Our workflows are tested against edge cases, monitored 24/7, and built to handle what happens when things don't go as expected.
Every client workflow we deploy in the Architecture category is designed with this principle in mind from day one not added as an afterthought.
