Skip to main contentWhat does it do?
Outputs nodes define how your assistant presents and delivers the results of their work to users. They control the formatting and delivery methods for everything your assistant produces - whether that’s a conversational response or structured data.
Outputs are the final step in your assistant’s workflow, ensuring that all the processing performed by Activity nodes is presented in a format that’s useful and appropriate for your users.
How do I use it?
Choose between the two available output formats based on what users need:
Text: Written responses that can be formatted with headings, bullet points, and lists. Good for conversational interactions, explanations, and natural language content.
Structured (JSON): Organized data in JSON format for users who need to perform further analysis or integrate with other systems. This provides consistent, machine-readable output with defined fields.
Configuration Options
Choose the format that best fits your use case:
- Text: For conversational responses, explanations, summaries, and natural language content
- Structured (JSON): For data extraction, categorization, and information that needs further processing
Quality Standards
Content Validation: Ensure outputs are complete and accurate before delivery
Format Consistency: Maintain consistent style and presentation across all outputs
User Experience: Focus on making outputs easy to understand and act upon
Best Practices
Design for Your Users
Consider who will be reading the outputs and format them appropriately for that audience’s technical level and information needs.
Keep It Organized
Use clear headings, bullet points, and logical structure to make outputs easy to scan and understand.
Maintain Quality Standards
Establish consistent formatting and presentation standards that reflect your organization’s professionalism.
- Use Text for explanations, conversational interactions, and natural language content
- Use Structured (JSON) when you need consistent data format for extraction, categorization, or integration with other systems
Try different output configurations to see what works best for your users and use cases.
