  4. Click the arrow to the right of input in the newly added custom activity.
  5. The inline schema will be displayed.
  6. In the Properties window, General tab, change the Name to <ActivityName>Input. For example, CustomActivityInput.
  7. Next, select New... from the Type dropdown.
  8. In the New Type dialog displayed, provide <ActivityName>InputType as Name. For example, CustomActivityInputType. Click OK.
  9. Follow the same steps to set the custom activity output type by clicking the arrow to the right of output, and using <CustomActivity>Output as name and <CustomActivity>OutputType as type.
  10. You can now add input and output parameters to the custom activity.
