CreateList

What is it?

The CreateList node is a utility node that creates a list from provided items. It allows you to build lists dynamically in your workflow by combining multiple inputs into a single list output.

When would I use it?

Use the CreateList node when:

• You need to combine multiple items into a single list
• You want to create a list from various inputs in your workflow
• You're building data structures that require list format
• You need to prepare data for nodes that require list inputs
• You want to consolidate multiple values into a single list structure

How to use it

Basic Setup

1. Add a CreateList node to your workflow
2. Connect individual items to the "items" input or add them directly in the node's properties
3. The node will combine all inputs into a single list output

Parameters

• items: A list of items to combine (supports multiple inputs of any type)
• output: The combined list containing all input items

Outputs

• output: A list containing all the items provided as input

Example

Imagine you want to create a list of different data types:

1. Add a CreateList node to your workflow
2. Connect various inputs to the "items" parameter (e.g., text, numbers, or other data types)
3. The output will be a list containing all these items in the order they were connected

Important Notes

• The CreateList node can handle items of any type
• Items are added to the list in the order they are connected
• The node automatically updates its output whenever input items change
• You can add items both through connections and directly in the node's properties

Common Issues

• Empty List: If no items are provided, the output will be an empty list
• Type Mismatch: The node accepts items of any type, but be aware of how the receiving node handles different data types
