Workspace
The workspace is where you build the instruction script using blocks from the toolbox.
Adding blocks
To add a block, select it in the toolbox, then drag it into the workspace. Connect it to another block by placing the connectors together, either above, below or inside each other. You then configure each block to use the variables and the inputs of the task where ever necessary.
By default the workspace contains a Start and a Return block. To create a valid set of instructions, all blocks must be connected together between these two blocks.
Block options
Several options are available when right clicking the inputs of a block:
- Duplicate the block
- Add a comment to the block
- Collapse block
- Delete block (except for Start and Return blocks)
- Help
Input options
- Change the variable used by the inputs to any other available variable
- Rename the variable
- Delete the variable
Icons in workspace
You can use the icons on the bottom right to perform several actions on the workspace :
- Center the set of blocks inside the workspace
- +/- zoom in or zoom out the view, you can also use your mouse wheel to achieve the same result
- Drag a block or group of block to the trash can icon to remove them from the workspace. Click on the trashcan icon to see the blocks you deleted
Generating code
Code instructions are generated automatically from your connected chain of blocks. All blocks must be connected together in a set, starting with the Start block and ending with the Return block to generate valid instructions
What to do next
For more information about the low-code blocks, see Introduction to block help.
If required, you can create guardrails to delimit the range of action of your task. Then, if your task is ready to be used in production, define its input and output schemas. By default, schemas are empty.
