Screenshot 2025-07-22 at 1.02.10 AM.png The Template Node allows you to create dynamic, formatted content in your Dume AI workflow. By combining static text with variables and outputs from earlier nodes, you can generate personalized emails, reports, summaries, and more—automatically and at scale.

Key Functions

  • Dynamic Text Generation: Insert data from previous workflow steps into custom text templates.
  • Versatile Output: Create human-readable emails, multi-section reports, notifications, or formatted API payloads.
  • Automation Ready: Chain with LLM nodes, inputs, code, or API calls for fully automated document creation.

How It Works

  • Content Field: Write your template using freeform text. Type ”/” to reference and insert any output from previous nodes—turning workflow data into a polished document.
  • Variable Substitution: As the workflow runs, placeholders are replaced with actual values from your process.
  • No-Code Setup: Simple interface means you don’t need advanced coding experience. Screenshot 2025-07-22 at 12.52.47 AM.png

Example Use Cases

  • Email Generation:
    Example template:
  • # Hi {INPUT/user_name}, Your support request (ID: {INPUT/ticket_id}) has been {LLM_Node/status_update}. Regards, The Support Team
  • Report Creation:
    Example template:
  • # Weekly Sales Report for {INPUT/report_date} Total Sales: {HTTP_SALES_NODE/total_sales} Top Product: {HTTP_SALES_NODE/top_product} Comments: {LLM_NODE/summary}
  • Notifications:
    Example template:
    Task "{INPUT/task_name}" assigned to {INPUT/assignee} is due on {INPUT/due_date}.

User Interface Overview

  • Description Area: Summarize the template’s purpose and data sources for team clarity.
  • Content Editor: Type or paste your formatted template. Reference data with ”/” to see a list of available variables.
  • Variable List: Track which data points are used, ensuring completeness.
  • Next Node: Pass the generated document to output, send via email, or push to another service.

Best Practices

  • Preview your content before deployment to verify all variables resolve properly.
  • Name your variables clearly in earlier nodes for easy reference.
  • Chain Template Nodes for layered document building (e.g., one for headers, one for detailed tables).
  • Document the template’s logic in the node’s description so your team can collaborate confidently.
The Template Node is the finishing touch that brings together data and narrative—transforming automated data flows into professional, ready-to-use documents, notifications, or communications.
