Node Inputs VS Node Outputs

Hi fab,
Node Inputs can be use for creating activity class parameters. Activity class parameters are use to pass values to node.
Node outputs can be used to store the data processed by your node using an expression.

For details information please check
docs.appian.com/.../Process_Node_and_Smart_Service_Properties.html

Node Input:These are also called Activity class parameters they will be used with in the node.once the process move onto next node this Activitity class parameters are no longer usefull.

Node Output:We save all the node out puts to the Process variables which can reused through out the process.

Note :We save Activity class parameters also into the node outputs so that they can be used all over the process.


If you know the java
Activity calss parameters are localvariables
Process variables are Global variables

Hope This helps.


Thank you!
