What are Output Nodes?

Output nodes are the terminal nodes of a workflow branch. Every branch that starts from a channel must end with an output node that defines what content is returned to the user.

​
Output Node Types

Visual Content

Render a visual template designed in the Content Editor.

JSON Template

Return a structured JSON payload using a pre-defined template with dynamic variables.

JSON Format

Return a raw JSON payload for headless integrations.

Empty

Return an empty response for control groups or fallbacks.

​
Adding an Output Node

1

Open the output picker

Click the Output button (content icon) in the bottom toolbar. The Content types drawer opens.
2

Select an output type

Choose Visual content, JSON format, or Empty from the available options.
3

Connect and configure

Connect the output node to the end of a branch. If you chose Visual content, select the content template from the content library.

Tips

  • Every branch must end with an output node for the workflow to be valid and publishable.
  • A single workflow can mix different output types across its branches — for example, Content on the main branch and Empty on the control group.
  • When selecting a content template, make sure the data available in the branch matches the template’s dynamic variables.
