Building flows

Use fields from earlier blocks

Fill a setting from each item with {{field}}, and see what each block passed on.

Fields are the values each item carries: name, city, phone, website, rating, a score, a distance. Any text setting can use them: write {{field}} and it is filled from each item when the flow runs.

  1. Click inside a text setting, for example an email's subject or a Slack message.
  2. A list of Fields coming in appears: everything that reaches this block, from the last run or from a test on example data.
  3. Click a field and {{field}} is put where you were typing.

For the whole list

For one message about the whole run, use {{count}} (how many items), {{items_md}} (a linked list, made for Slack), {{items}}, {{items_json}}, {{csv}} (every item as a table) and {{date}}.
