Property Panel

The Property Panel appears on the right side of the modeler when you select a node or edge. It provides all the tools needed to configure the selected element.

Single element selection

When a single node or edge is selected, the Property Panel shows:

Label

The display name of the element. Click the label to edit it inline.

Configuration form

A dynamic form generated by the backend, specific to the selected component's plugin. Form fields vary depending on the component type and may include:

  • Text fields: For string values.
  • Select lists: For choosing from predefined options.
  • Checkboxes: For boolean settings.
  • Number fields: For numeric values.
  • Text areas: For multi-line text.

Token support

Some configuration fields accept tokens -- dynamic values from the workflow execution context. Fields that support tokens show a visual indicator during token drag operations. See Replay & Testing > Tokens for details.

Annotation

An optional text note that documents what this element does.

Info popup

Click the i button in the panel header to view metadata about the selected element, including:

  • Component ID
  • Plugin ID
  • Provider module
  • Component type
  • Documentation link (if available)

Replay data

When replay data is available for the model, an event node's Property Panel includes a Load replay data button. Clicking it fetches execution history for that event. See Replay & Testing for details.

Multi-selection

When multiple elements are selected (using Shift+click or box selection), the Property Panel shows a Multi-Selection Panel with:

  • Selection summary: Count of selected nodes and edges.
  • Delete all: A danger-styled button that deletes all selected elements after a confirmation dialog.
