Field mappings
Most actions have one or more input fields. This example has three:

Input field values can include static text and dynamically inserted data values from other actions and triggers when the automation executes.
When an input field is focused by clicking on it, any available help text about the field will appear:

Available mappable fields from other actions and triggers will also appear:

Clicking a field from the list will add it to the mapping at the current cursor position within the text:

The automation diagram will appear. Only actions and triggers that precede the item are enabled for selection, since only those emit output that can be mapped into the field:

The list is filtered as you type.
You can also filter the list of input fields with these checkboxes, to show only required and/or mapped fields:

Clicking the "eye" icon that appears next to mapped action fields will reveal the field in the popup list:

The "eye" icon that appears next to mapped action fields can also be double-clicked, which displays the field's action in the diagram.
