Notes Component
The Notes Component is a sticky note you place on the editor canvas. Use it to leave explanations, mark sections or remind anyone who opens the flow of pending steps. It does not connect to anything and does not change what the flow does when it runs.
When to use it
- Explain to your team what each part of a long flow does.
- Mark areas of the canvas, for example “Incoming orders” or “Sending notifications”.
- Leave instructions for whoever maintains the flow, such as which credential to use or who to contact if it fails.
- Write down pending tasks while you build the flow.
Configuration
To add a note, click Add a note in the canvas controls bar. The note appears on the canvas with the text Add Note ….
| Field | What it does |
|---|---|
| Note text | Click the note to open Edit Note and write the content. Simple formatting such as headings, lists and bold text is supported. |
| Color | Hover over the note to see the available colors and pick one. |
| Size | Select the note and drag its corners to make it larger or smaller. |
Output
The note produces no output and never runs. It is only visible in the editor, next to the other components.
Example
In a flow that handles customer requests, you add a yellow note next to the first components saying “Emails from the support inbox come in here” and a green one at the end saying “Replies are logged in the tracking sheet”. Anyone on the team understands the flow at a glance.
Good practices
- Use one color per kind of note, for example yellow for explanations and red for warnings.
- Keep notes short. If you need more detail, split the explanation into several notes next to each section.
