Block: Note Block — Zelaxy Docs

The Note block is a metadata-only block for adding human-readable notes, comments, or documentation directly on your workflow canvas. Reach for it when you want to explain a section of a workflow to teammates — notes have no runtime effect and are skipped during execution.

When to Use

Placeholder	`Add a note or comment about this part of the workflow...`

Inputs & Outputs
