Input Node
What is an Input Node?
An Input node allows you and your end-users to send text messages to any node that accepts text strings as input.
The most popular nodes accepting inputs are:
The LLM nodes (adding the input as part of their prompt).
The Knowledge Base nodes (they use the input as a prompt to retrieve information from their contents)
Here are a few quick facts:
The inputs can be text fields of any length and are passed to their connected node in the flow.
While inputs can be of any length, you should be mindful that LLM prompts have a limit on how long of an input they can process. To handle long inputs, consider using the Text Data Loader.
To expose an Input node to your users, you will need to set it up in the Export tab.
How to expose your Inputs externally?
Go to the Export tab.
Enable the input node in the Inputs section.
Press Save Interface to save your changes.
Your users should now see a text input in the interface.
