--- alias: user-guide-automation-converter-anytoany description: "This converter transforms any data type into a generic “Any” type for processing" --- # Any to Any The simplest of converters, AnyToAny transforms any type into a type of type *Any*, serving as a pass-through. This is important when the input task expects an `object` and the output of the link task is not of type `object` and when we want to do further operations on a non-standard type. ![image117][image117] [image117]: ./images/image117.png
