This section demonstrates how to use all the functionalities offered by the Mindtrade project editor.
If you are not sure about how to create a project, please read the Creating Projects section.
Programs can be created and edited manually or using the AI-Powered Chat-To-Program feature.
This page shows how to create and edit programs manually. To learn how to exploit the Chat-To-Program feature, please refer to the Chat To Program subsection.
To start exploring the available nodes and adding them to your program, open the node library clicking on the book icon at the top-right of the project editor.
You can search nodes by their names and description using the Search bar at the top, or filter them by their tags using the Filter by Tags feature. By clicking on the dropdown arrow next to Filter by Tags, you will see all the existing tags and be able to select one or more of them for filtering the nodes in the library.
To add a node to you program, just drag and drop it into the project editor.
Once you identified and added the nodes that you need in your program, you are ready to start adding edges between them in order to define the order of their execution, and specify the required node input values.
In order to add an edge between two nodes, just connect the dots on their borders.
Most of the nodes require specifying some input values in order to perform their tasks. To set a node input, click on the relative field inside the node. You will see an interface that lets you specify the input value in three different ways:
Static inputs are hand-typed values. Just type the value you want to use as input and click Confirm.
The Node option lets you select another node's output as input. You can identify nodes by the names displayed in the dropdown list. These names contain the node resource identifier and its name. The resource id part is useful to distinguish between multiple nodes with the same name that can be present in the graph.
The Secret option lets you select one of the Secrets you saved in your Mindtrade account. Secrets are, as the name suggests, secret values like passwords or private keys that you can store in your account in order to be able to use them as node inputs across your different projects. For detailed information on how to create and manage you Secrets, please refer to the Secrets section.
Chat to Program is another way of building programs with very low effort. Visit the next section of the documentation to understand how it works in detail.
