Understanding Blocks
Overview

Overview


Blocks are used to display content – this includes inputs, outputs, or any intermediate results in the workflow. Each block acts like an editor, allowing you to view and modify the content freely.

Understanding Blocks

Key points:

  • One block holds one piece of content. To manage multiple contents, just create multiple blocks.
  • Unlocked by default: this means the block will automatically update its content when the upstream workflow step changes.
  • Locking a block: click the top-right menu (...) and select Lock the text. This will freeze the block's content, preventing it from being updated by upstream nodes – useful when debugging or fixing intermediate results during workflow iteration.
  • Block label: shown at the top left of each block, randomly generated by default. Rename it via the ... menu > Rename.
  • Content area: just below the label, where you can manually edit or paste in your content.
  • Delete block: use the ... menu > Delete.
  • Connection handles: found on all four sides of the block, allowing up to four connected edge nodes.
