Component description

How the Note component works

Component: Note

The Note component is a utility element designed to help users add descriptive text or comments directly into their AI workflow. This can be helpful for documenting the purpose, logic, or important considerations about specific parts of a flow, making your workflow more understandable and maintainable for yourself or collaborators.

Purpose

Documentation: Allows users to insert notes or explanations anywhere within a flow, serving as in-line documentation.
Collaboration: Facilitates teamwork by enabling users to leave messages or instructions for other users who may work with or review the workflow.
Organization: Helps structure complex flows by providing context or reminders at key points in the process.

Inputs and Outputs

Name	Type	Description	Required	Multiple Lines
my_note	String	The content of your note (textual comment)	No	Yes

Inputs:
- The component accepts a text input, which can be entered in multiple lines. This input is not required, so you can leave it empty if you wish.
- The input type is flexible and designed to accept messages or comments.
Outputs:
- The component does not produce any outputs or alter the flow’s data. Its sole purpose is to store and display the provided note.

Key Features

Multiline Support: Write detailed notes or multi-paragraph explanations.
Traceability: Notes can be traced as input or as metadata, allowing for better tracking and reference within the workflow.
Display: Notes are visible within the flow, making them easy to find and read.
No Effect on Data Flow: This component does not interfere with data processing; it is strictly for annotation.

Use Cases

Onboarding: Help new team members understand the workflow by providing context or pointers.
Versioning: Annotate changes or reasons for updates at specific points in the flow.
Debugging: Leave troubleshooting tips or explanations about non-obvious logic for future reference.
