Data Mapping

Data mapping lets you reference data from previous blocks in your current block. When Block 1 returns a user ID, Block 2 can use it in its URL — automatically.

How it works

  1. Run a block — the response data becomes available as variables
  2. Type {{ in any field (URL, headers, body, auth) — the autocomplete dropdown appears
  3. Pick a value — it inserts the variable reference
  4. When the flow runs — the variable resolves to the actual value from the previous block’s response

Autocomplete

Type {{ in any input field to open the variable picker:
  • Previous block responses — body fields, status, headers
  • Environment variables — baseUrl, apiKey, etc.
  • Email block values — extracted OTP, email subject, from address
Each suggestion shows the actual value from the last run, so you know exactly what you’re selecting. Autocomplete dropdown

Variable syntax

Variables use double curly braces: {{source.path}}

From previous blocks

{{node_abc123.body.id}}          → response body field
{{node_abc123.body.user.email}}  → nested field
{{node_abc123.status}}           → response status code
{{node_abc123.headers.x-token}}  → response header

From environment variables

{{baseUrl}}     → environment variable
{{apiKey}}      → environment variable
{{testEmail}}   → environment variable

From email blocks

{{node_email1.value}}     → extracted value (OTP, link, etc.)
{{node_email1.subject}}   → email subject
{{node_email1.from}}      → sender address

Example

Block 1: Create User
POST {{baseUrl}}/users
Body: {"email": "test@example.com", "name": "John"}
Response: {"id": "usr_123", "email": "test@example.com"}
Block 2: Get User (references Block 1’s response)
GET {{baseUrl}}/users/{{node_block1.body.id}}
→ resolves to: GET https://api.example.com/users/usr_123
You don’t need to memorize node IDs. The autocomplete dropdown handles this — just type {{ and pick the value you need.

Where variables work

Variables are supported in:
  • URL field
  • Header values
  • Request body
  • Auth token / API key values
