Inputs

version - Version
string. Default value: 10.x.

Required. Specifies the Node.js version using SemVer's version range syntax. Examples: 10.x, 10.15.1, >=10.15.0.


checkLatest - Check for Latest Version
boolean. Default value: false.

Checks online for the latest available version that satisfies the version spec. This should be false unless you need to always have the latest version. Setting the value to true will cause the task to incur download costs that may be unnecessary, especially with the hosted build pool.
