Complete overview of the Flow Builder

An error is something that will prevent a nodeInsert definition here or a flowInsert definition here from executing successfully. Examples include misconfigured connections or merge fields that reference missing data.

Errors within nodes can be detected through two primary indicators:

  • Within the Node If a node encounters an error, a message stating This node has some errors will prominently display within the node settings through a red outline and exclamation symbol. This alert serves as a direct indication that the particular node requires your attention for troubleshooting.
  • Global error view on Menu bar Additionally, the Flow BuilderInsert definition here provides a holistic view of errors across all nodes in a flow via the menu bar. If errors are present, an alert will list them collectively.

Each error message is designed to guide you to the problem area within the node.
