Output Fields
- Ben Clark
Understanding which fields are flowing through a tile is very useful. It allows you to understand which new Tiles may fit and understand where fields are created so you can find a good slot to add new ones in.
Right clicking on a Tile allows you to select “Show Output Fields”. This opens the output fields side panel with a view of all the fields that are output from the tile against each output connector.
You can review changes to a field by searching for it and then either selecting another Tile in the drop down at the top or by simply clicking on another tile. Both allow you to focus the output fields side panel on another tile.
Output fields offers the following features:
Search functionality to easily locate specific fields of interest and hide unrelated ones, simplifying the review of the flow of specific fields in your rule.
Display of fields for each distinct output, where applicable. Tiles may have multiple outputs with different associated fields, and now you can specify the one you want to view.
Indication of how far back in the rule flow a field was created, including a tile-based distance measurement. This helps you understand where the field originated.
The Output Connector can be changed at the top. Each Field has a name and type
