Set variables

1. Description

The component allows you to assign an additional variable that can be used later.

The block (Fig.1(1)) is used in space to build the Flow. The settings panel for this component opens (Fig.1(2)) when you click on the block.

1.1. Set variables block

The block consists of the following elements:

1. The name of the component;

2. In branch — receiving (connecting with the previous block) branch;

3. Out branch — outgoing (connecting with the following block) branch. When hovering over the Out field, a switch appears. The switch allows this component to be connected to a component that already has a connection.

The presence of an icon indicates that the switch is on, and this component can be connected to a component that already has a connection.

Changing the switch position removes the outgoing branch of this component.

The button deletes the block from the Flow Schema.

1.2.4. Remove tool

It is intended for removing a variable in a row with which it stands—clicking the   icon removes the variable.

1.2.5. Break

Responsible for the completion of the flow execution.

• — initiates the end of the flow execution after the given component.

• — the switch is in the off position.

1.2.6. Limit

It is intended to determine the maximum number of passes through this component.

The failover branch appears in the edited component when the limit is set .

The failover branch will be used if more passes are passed through the component than entered in the Max field.

Clicking on the Add Limit button adds a Max field and a Delete limit button.

The number of possible passes is indicated in the Max field.

Clicking on the Delete limit button removes the limit and returns the Add limit button.

Clicking the Delete description button removes the description field and brings back the Add description button.
