String Input

Overview

The String Input node acts as a dedicated entry point for text-based data. It serves as a gateway to receive String values from external connections or separate flows and injects them into the current logic.

Use String Input when:

  • You need to pass names, IDs, or other textual data into a flow.
  • You want to define an entry point for text that varies between different flow executions.

💡 Tip

This node is perfect for receiving dynamic content that will be formatted and used later in the flow.

Outputs
