Assign

The assign node facilitates assignment of values to variables within flows. It is one of the most fundamental building blocks for data manipulation and transformation. With the Assign node, users can assign results of evaluating expressions, as well as results produced by other nodes, to local variables, enabling dynamic behavior and logic.
