Notes Node
The Notes node lets you place rich text annotations directly on the canvas. You use it to document decisions, add instructions for collaborators, or leave reminders about specific parts of a workflow.
What It Does
Each Notes node is a resizable rich text editor powered by Tiptap. You can write formatted text with headings, bold, italic, lists, and more. Notes come with 10 color options for the background, making it easy to visually categorize different types of annotations.
Configuration
| Parameter | Description | Options |
|---|---|---|
| Content | Rich text content of the note | Tiptap editor (headings, bold, italic, lists, links) |
| Color | Background color of the note | 10 color options |
| Size | Dimensions of the note on the canvas | Resizable by dragging edges |
Usage
- Drag a Notes node onto the canvas.
- Click into the note to open the Tiptap rich text editor.
- Write your content using the formatting toolbar (headings, bold, italic, bullet lists, numbered lists, links).
- Choose a Color to categorize the note visually.
- Resize the note by dragging its edges to fit your content.
Use color coding to distinguish note types: for example, yellow for general information, red for warnings or known issues, and green for approved configurations. This helps collaborators quickly understand the context.
Like Group nodes, Notes nodes are purely visual and do not affect data flow or workflow execution.
