This document explains the Combine Text node, which merges multiple text values using a customizable template format.

​
Node Inputs

​

​
Node Functionality

The Combine Text node:
  • Merges text values from connected nodes
  • Uses simple template-based formatting with placeholders
  • Allows direct selection of values from connected nodes
  • Preserves spaces and punctuation
  • Works with both single values and lists (Loop Mode)

​

  1. Connect Source Nodes: Link previous nodes that contain the values you want to combine
  2. Create Your Template: Click inside the format field and:
    • Type your text template
    • Add placeholders by selecting from available connected values
    • Format as needed with spaces, punctuation, and line breaks
  3. Run Your Flow: The node will replace all placeholders with their corresponding values

Format Tips

​
1. Basic Text Combination

Combine text with proper spacing: 
Format: "{Title} {First Name} {Last Name}"

​
2. Custom Separators

Add separators between values: 
Format: "{Company Name} - {Industry} - {Location}"

​
3. Repeated Values

Use the same value multiple times: 
Format: "{Customer Name} purchased {Product}. Please deliver to {Customer Name}."

​
Loop Mode

When the Combine Text node runs in Loop Mode:
  • It processes each item in input lists independently
  • Input lists must be the same length
  • Results in a list of combined strings

​
Loop Mode Example

Connected values:
- Names: ["John", "Sarah", "Miguel"]
- Scores: ["85", "92", "78"]

Format: "{Names} scored {Scores}%"

Result: ["John scored 85%", "Sarah scored 92%", "Miguel scored 78%"]
In summary, the Combine Text node is a versatile tool for merging values from connected nodes into formatted text, supporting everything from simple concatenation to complex template-based formatting.
