Node Selection Guide

By Use Case

AI & LLM Tasks → Use AI nodes (nodes-ai-reference)

  • Text generation: LLMNode, OpenAINode, AnthropicNode
  • Vision: VisionNode
  • Audio: AudioNode
  • Local LLMs: OllamaNode

API Integration → Use API nodes (nodes-api-reference)

  • REST APIs: APICallNode, HTTPRequestNode
  • Webhooks: WebhookNode
  • GraphQL: GraphQLNode

Custom Logic → Use Code nodes (nodes-code-reference)

  • Python: PythonCodeNode (recommended)
  • JavaScript: JavaScriptNode
  • Shell: BashNode

Database Work → Use Database nodes (nodes-database-reference)

  • SQL queries: SQLQueryNode, AsyncSQLNode
  • CRUD with DataFlow: Auto-generated nodes

File Operations → Use File nodes (nodes-file-reference)

  • Reading files: FileReaderNode
  • Bulk operations: DirectoryReaderNode
  • File watching: FileWatcherNode

Conditional Logic → Use Logic nodes (nodes-logic-reference)

  • Simple conditions: SwitchNode
  • Complex routing: IfElseNode
  • Loops: LoopNode, CycleNode

Data Processing → Use Data nodes (nodes-data-reference)

  • CSV: CSVReaderNode, CSVWriterNode
  • JSON: JSONParserNode
  • Validation: DataValidatorNode

Monitoring → Use Monitoring nodes (nodes-monitoring-reference)

Critical Node Patterns

String-Based API

workflow.add_node("PythonCodeNode", "node1", {
    "code": "result = input_data * 2"
})

Parameter Passing

workflow.add_connection("node1", "result", "node2", "input_data")

Common Nodes

  • PythonCodeNode: Most flexible, use for custom logic
  • SwitchNode: Conditional routing based on values
  • CSVReaderNode: Reading CSV files
  • APICallNode: HTTP API calls
  • LoggerNode: Debug and production logging
