What is the Output section in nodes, and how can I use it?

Each node can produce output values (data) when it runs. The Output section is where you view and copy those values so you can reuse them in later nodes. Output values are the list of data fields a node exposes (for example: order_id, filled_price, breakout_price, status).

What the Output section is

It’s a list of data fields a node exposes (for example: order_id, filled_price, breakout_price, status).

Where to find it

  • On the canvas, click the node’s edit (pencil) icon.
  • A side sheet opens with two tabs:
    • Configuration – set up the node.
    • Output – see and copy the node’s output fields.

How to use outputs in later nodes

  1. Open the source node → go to the Output tab → click Copy next to the field you need.
  2. Open a later node in your flow and paste the copied field into a supported input (price, quantity, ID, text, etc.).
  3. Validate the canvas. When the automation runs, the pasted field resolves to the actual runtime value produced by the earlier node.

Practical examples

  • Copy order_id from Place order and paste it into Modify order or Cancel order.
  • Copy breakout_price from Range/Price breakout and paste it into a price field for your next action.
  • Copy an execution status and use it in a condition or check step.

What If?

ScenarioWhat to do
I don’t see any outputs for a nodeOpen the node’s edit side sheet and switch to Output. Some nodes expose outputs only when certain settings are enabled.
The pasted output fails validationThat input may expect a different data type. Paste the output into a compatible field or adjust the node configuration.
The output looks empty when I testEnsure the source node actually runs before the node that uses its value. Re-check flow order and conditions.
