Overview

Use a

NameName given to the node. This will be displayed on the actionflow canvas.Converge Paths

Output Attributes

Output attributes provide a means of creating attributes, which can then be mapped to using the attributes from incoming paths. This is necessary as the converge node will only pass through attributes which are common to all paths, therefore the output attributes provide a means of converging attributes to a common name.

The grid contains a list of all Output Attributes and their data type.

  • To add a new Output Attribute, in the section toolbar click 
    Insert excerpt
    _add
    _add
    nopaneltrue
     and set its properties; see Input Connection Points.
  • To edit an existing input connection point, double-click it in the list to open its properties.
  • To remove an input connection point, select one and in the section toolbar click

Tip

The ifUnavailable function can be used in a Calculate Node to check that a record in an actionflow has a value mapped to an output attribute of a Converge Node.  

For example, if there are three paths being passed into a Converge Node, and one of the paths does not have an attribute mapped to an output attribute, trying to reference that output attribute later in the workflow will throw and error on a record where there was no attribute mapped. The ifUnavailable function can be used to capture and handle this scenario.
