What is the Update Object step?
Update Object is a Workflow Action step that updates information within a Persona object when triggered.
Objects are Persona products including Inquiries, Cases, and Accounts. They may contain information such as customer contact information, address, status, etc. Update Object allows you to either modify (set) or remove (unset) information from fields like those, from within your Workflow. This is useful for automating changes to Objects once certain actions are completed. Commonly updated Persona objects included Cases, Accounts, and Transactions.
