Input Node:
The Input Node is the foundation of any workflow in Dume AI. It lets you define all the dynamic fields that a user must provide when triggering a workflow — such as the topic of a post, type of audience, desired tone, and more.
Configuration Options
Each input field added to this node supports, for exmaple:Field Types Supported
string– Plain text input.number– Numeric input.boolean– True/False switches.select– Dropdown menu with predefined values.object– JSON-like structure for complex data (advanced).array– Lists of items (coming soon).
Please note: Default vaules of the variables are picked if the workflow is scheduled.
Practical Use Cases
Social Media Post Generator
Use these values to generate a LinkedIn post with an engaging hook, body, and CTA.
Ad Copy Generator
Feed this input into LLM and Template nodes to generate ad titles, descriptions, and call-to-actions.
How It Works With Other Nodes
- Refer to inputs in LLM Nodes using
/post_topic,/goal, etc. - Use inputs in Condition Nodes for branching logic.
- Populate Templates dynamically with user data.
Best Practices
- Mark all essential fields as required to avoid runtime errors.
- Use Select type to create fixed options.
- Avoid using long, ambiguous string fields when options can be structured.
- Test with different combinations of inputs to ensure downstream nodes handle variability.
- Provide Description for each field, which helps undertand more about the input.
