Set Context

Provides the event context (form values, row data) as pipeline input. When used as a source node (no incoming edges), returns the parent context which includes row data and form element values. When used as a pass-through (has incoming edges), returns the input data unchanged.

Configuration

No configuration required.

Input

Optional. When connected to an incoming edge, passes the input through unchanged.

Output

  • As source node (no incoming edges): Returns the full event context, including row data from data-nxs-context and form values merged from _elements
  • As pass-through (has incoming edges): Returns the input data unchanged

Example

Used as the starting node in a backend event pipeline to provide the triggering context:

Set Context → Set Field (created_at = now()) → Save Row → Output

TIP

Previously named "Context" (context). Old pipelines using context continue to work.

For form submissions, prefer the POST Data node which gives cleaner access to just the form field values.
