Schema friendly names

AMacourek — Tue, 10 Feb 2026 13:43:57 GMT

Is there a way to have Workato NOT show a friendly name for a schema. I have a recipe function that returns an object based on a schema and I would like to use that schema in the calling recipe as it was defined. For example, show "displayName" instead of "Display name"

I realize that Workato is trying to make it more readable, but I would like it verbatim.

If it's a schema you defined, you can update the label value.

I also find this behavior really annoying. I wish they would always use the key name for the data pill, or at least show it in smaller text so I don't need to hover to see it.

## default for 'firstName' will display as "First name" [ { "name": "firstName", "type": "string", "optional": false, "control_type": "text", "label": "First name" ## this guy right here } ] ## the below will display as "firstName" in the data pill [ { "name": "firstName", "type": "string", "optional": false, "control_type": "text", "label": "firstName" } ]

Hi @AMacourek ,

I’m adding a few screenshots to support @gary1’s explanation. The label name determines how it appears and is displayed everywhere.

Change your Label name that will solve your problem.
