Merge Node | Vellum | Documentation

vellum.workflows.nodes.MergeNode

Used to merge the control flow of multiple nodes into a single node. This node exists primarily for backwards compatibility with Vellum’s Merge Node functionality.

For most cases, you should extend from BaseNode.Trigger directly instead of using MergeNode. Read more on Triggers

Attributes

This node doesn’t have any specific attributes as it’s a simple control flow node.
