Box
Drop a published box — a saved fragment of flow — in as one node.
One instance of a published box: a saved fragment of flow, dropped in as a single node.
A linked instance pins boxId:version and keeps no body of its own — the definition is fetched and the ports and tier follow it, stamped by the box sync on save. Unlinking copies the body in and the instance stops tracking the library. The palette builds a tile per library entry rather than one for Box itself, which is why this page is named from here.

version
string · required · defaults to ""
Which published version it is pinned to.
boxId
string · required · defaults to ""
The box in the library this instance is of.

parameterValues
Record<string, unknown> · required · defaults to {}
This instance's values for the box's declared parameters.
body
object · required · defaults to null
The copied flow — its modules and edges — for an unlinked instance; null while it is still linked.
Inputs
on
event
no
Implicit on every module that does not itself start a flow: wire an event here to make this module the start of what that event runs.
Outputs
Derived, not fixed: this module takes the ports of whatever it resolves to, so a freshly dropped one has none yet.
