Step types

Uniflect flow designer supports 15 step types organized into four palette groups.

Overview

Step palette — Core, Logic, Integration, and Utility groups.

Quick reference

Step	Category	Purpose
Trigger	Core	Flow entry point
JavaScript	Core	Sandboxed script execution
HTTP	Integration	REST/HTTP requests
Condition	Logic	Branch on rules
For each	Logic	Loop over items
Parallel	Logic	Concurrent branches
Subflow	Logic	Nested reusable flow
Connector	Integration	Marketplace connector ops
Email	Integration	Send templated email
Database	Integration	Insert/query workspace DB
Mapping	Utility	Field transformation
Delay	Utility	Wait milliseconds
Set variable	Utility	Store runtime variable
Log	Utility	Log message to run output
Spreadsheet to JSON	Utility	Parse CSV/Excel

Template syntax

All steps support template resolution in string fields:

{{trigger.input}}           → run input payload
{{steps.<stepId>}}          → prior step output
{{steps.<stepId>.field}}    → nested field access
{{vars.<key>}}              → set_variable values
{{parent.steps.<stepId>}}   → parent flow (nested contexts)

Edge types

Handle	Used by
next	Most steps — success path
failure	Steps with error handling paths
branch-0, branch-1, …	Condition step branches

Categories explained

Core

Entry and computation — every flow starts with a Trigger; JavaScript handles custom logic in a QuickJS WASM sandbox.

Logic

Control flow — branch, loop, parallelize, or encapsulate subflows.

Integration

External I/O — HTTP calls, connectors, emails, and workspace database operations.

Utility

Data shaping and debugging — mappings, delays, variables, logs, and spreadsheet parsing.
