Storage Volumes by Reference

Storage Volumes can be used by their reference from workflow volumes. A Storage Volume reference includes (at a minimum) a scope and the Storage Class to which it belongs. An optional custom name can be specified depending on the Storage Class naming configuration. So a Storage Volume reference takes this form:

volume://<scope>/<storage_volume_name>/<optional_custom_name>

Where scope can be either user or account depending of the defined Storage Class scope. If the Storage Class scope is set to account, the reference will forcibly start with the prefix volume://account. Conversely if the Storage Class scope is set to user, the reference will forcibly start with the prefix volume://user .

These values are case sensitive.

So if you want to use a Storage Volume on ephemeral Storage Class which has defined the scope to user, you would need to use this reference volume://user/ephemeral. ephemeral is automatically setting the volume name to workflow ID so the custom name is optional and will be ignored when set.
