uip api-workflow build

uip api-workflow build compiles an API Workflow project without packaging it. Use it as a fast type/syntax gate in CI or inner-loop iteration; reach for uip api-workflow pack when you also need a .nupkg.

Synopsis​

uip api-workflow build <projectPath>
  • <projectPath> — path to the API Workflow project directory or .uip file.

Options​

build takes no options beyond --help. Customize package metadata or signing through uip api-workflow pack instead.

Examples​

# Build a project — fail the step on any compile error
uip api-workflow build ./my-workflow

# Capture the JSON result for downstream pipeline steps
uip api-workflow build ./my-workflow --output json

Data shape (--output json)​

{
  "Code": "ApiWorkflowBuild",
  "Data": { "Success": true }
}

On a compile failure, the tool exits with code 1 and emits a Failure result with build diagnostics in Instructions.
