Return

The Return node ends execution in a sub-workflow and sends data back to the main workflow.

Overview​

Used together with the Call Flow node. When a sub-workflow reaches the Return node, it stops immediately, and the return value is passed to the caller's configured "Output Variable." Only effective when called as a sub-workflow — executing a Return node in a standalone workflow has no meaningful effect.

Return Configuration Panel

Usage​

Drag the Return node to the end of a sub-workflow and fill in the return value in the JSON editor.

Supports {{variableName}} references — similar to Call Flow's Carry Data, variables are replaced before JSON parsing:

{
  "status": "success",
  "amount": "{{price}}",
  "count": {{totalCount}},
  "data": {{resultList}}
}

If a variable stores a JSON string or array, it can also be embedded directly — just don't quote it.

Note: Don't quote numbers and booleans ({{totalCount}} not "{{totalCount}}"), or they'll be treated as strings.
