Start Node
The Start node marks the pipeline entry. It tells the runtime where to read the initial context and whether subsequent stages/nodes should execute. Place it at the top of the first stage to decide if the pipeline should even launch.
Parameters
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
name | string | âī¸ | Node name for logs and the UI, e.g. start-order-sync. |
conditions | string | Boolean expression or variable placeholder like ${ENV} == "prod". When false, the pipeline stops immediately. |
Usage Tips
- Keep names descriptive so different trigger sources are easy to identify.
- Each pipeline should have exactly one Start node to avoid ambiguous entry points.
- Move complex logic into helper nodes or variables; the Start node should only return a final true/false decision.
