Summary

This PR fixes a validation error when using checkbox (multi-select) type parameters in tool nodes.

Problem

When a tool node has a checkbox parameter, executing the workflow fails with:

ValidationError: 1 validation error for ToolInput type Value error, value must be a string, int, float, bool or dict

Root Cause

Checkbox multi-select controls store values as arrays (e.g., ['female']), but the ToolInput validator in tool nodes did not support list type, while TriggerEventInput in trigger nodes already does.

Comparison:

Node Type Supported value types
Trigger Node (TriggerEventInput) str, int, float, bool, dict, list
Tool Node (ToolInput) str, int, float, bool, dict

Solution

Add list type support to ToolInput.check_type() validator to align with TriggerEventInput behavior.

Changes

  • api/core/workflow/nodes/tool/entities.py: Add list type validation for constant value in ToolInput
