# NewConsultationInput

input type

Create-input for a Consultation. followOnOfId must name an in-tenant Consultation (the outgrowth link — its stored summary is YOURS to paste into the first ask; the platform never copies context silently). The tenant AND the parent derive SERVER-SIDE.

## Fields

| Field | Type | Required | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `caption` | [String](/types/#scalars) | no | Optional: when omitted the per-type default applies — NONE — the Scratchpad divergence class: the caption IS the consultation name, and an omitted caption refuses VALIDATION/INVALID at the boundary instead of defaulting; when supplied it must be non-blank. |
| `followOnOfId` | [ID](/types/#scalars) | no | The consultation this one continues (in-tenant gated; optional). |
