on.workflow_call.inputs.<input_id> description, required and default have no headings #46304
Description
Code of Conduct
- I have read and agree to the GitHub Docs project's Code of Conduct
What article on docs.github.com is affected?
What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?
The on.workflow_call.inputs.<input_id> keys are only partly documented. The article has a heading for .type only. The schema in actions/languageservices (workflow-parser/src/workflow-v1.0.json, at fb5c6e4) defines description, required and default for each workflow_call input. required and default are described only in prose, and description not at all. Please add description, required and default headings matching the existing .type section.
Additional information
The example on the page and the workflow_dispatch section are similar, so the same pattern may be worth checking there.

Hi @janiceilene,
I'd be interested in contributing a fix for this issue.
I've reviewed the affected workflow syntax documentation and understand the request to add dedicated reference headings for
description,required, anddefaultunderon.workflow_call.inputs.<input_id>.Would the team be open to an external PR for this improvement? I'd be happy to follow the existing documentation structure and contribution guidelines.
Thanks!
