Node: Jump to Another Node

The Jump to Node node breaks out of the workflow's normal edge-following path and resumes execution directly from another chosen node in the same workflow. It's useful for retries, re-asking a question, or building manual loops.

When to use it

• Retry a question when the customer's answer wasn't valid.
• Return to an earlier point in the flow without duplicating nodes.
• Build retry logic with a counter (combined with the If node).

Configuration

• Target node: picked from the list of existing nodes in that same workflow (by its internal id).

Steps

1. Drag "Jump to Another Node" from Actions.
2. In the inspector, choose the target node from the list.
3. Wire the Jump node at the point in the flow where the jump should fire (e.g. after detecting an invalid answer).

Example

"Ask Question" (what's your email?) → If node validates the format → if invalid, "Jump to Another Node" returns to the "Ask Question" node to retry.

Tips

• Watch out for infinite loops: pair the jump with a counter variable and an If node that breaks out after N attempts.
• If the target node gets deleted from the canvas, the jump points at a nonexistent id and fails.

Troubleshooting

• "No target_node_id specified": you haven't picked a target node in the inspector yet.
• The jump doesn't happen / the flow just continues: confirm the target node still exists in the workflow.
