Core concepts
The vocabulary. Flows, nodes, edges, triggers, integrations, credentials, and runs.
A flow is one automation: a directed graph of nodes joined by edges. Each node runs one step; the edge leaving it carries its output to the next. A flow is a JSON spec you can export, version, or generate.
A node is one step, with a type and typed inputs and outputs. A trigger node starts the flow, and the nodes downstream run in order. Each node type has its own page under Building flows.
An edge connects two nodes and carries data forward. An edge can also carry conditions, so one node routes to different branches based on the data. See Conditions.
An integration is an external service Flikk connects to, like Slack or Stripe. Connecting one gives you a credential and unlocks that integration's nodes. A node references a credential by name. See Connecting.
A run is one execution of a flow. The Runs view records each run: which trigger fired, what every node returned, and where it stopped if it failed.
