Configure fields on the General and Design tabs. Execution is handled by the JOrchestrator WordPress plugin.

The designer shows these tabs for this node:
| Tab | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Info | Plain-language description and output payload fields for downstream steps |
| General | Canvas label and read-only node ID |
| AI | Optional assistant to help draft settings from plain language |
| Design | Node-specific configuration fields |
These fields are managed by the designer or runtime — you do not type into them directly:
| Property key | Label | Type | Required | Visible when | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
_nodeId | Node ID | node-id | No | — | — |
_payloadFields | Available Fields | payload-panel | No | — | — |
| Property key | Label | Type | Required | Visible when | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
label | Label | text | No | — | Node label |
value | Value | text | No | — | Enter value |
Credentials, API keys, mailers, SMTP, and integration defaults are configured in the CMS plugin under Node Configuration, not per step on this node. Link the flow to a domain before testing CMS-backed fields.
_This node does not define standard output payload fields in the designer Info tab._
