Check the option Use as step description to display the text next to the icon of the plugin in
the Process area.
The tab also provides an option to highlight the task in "The Process area" on page769 with
the default color, set in the Preferences (see "General appearance preferences" on page659),
or the color selected or defined under Highlight color on this tab.
To revert the selected highlight color to the default color, open this tab, turn the Highlight option
off and close the dialog with the OK button; then turn highlighting back on.
Highlighting can also be turned on and off via the task's contextual menu and with the Highlight
button on the View ribbon.
NodeJS Server Input
NodeJS Server Input tasks are used to receive HTTP requests and to send replies to the
servers from which the requests were made.
Essentially this task does the same as the HTTP Server Input task, but it uses a NodeJS Server
(installed by Workflow) instead of Workflow's custom server component. The NodeJS Server is
more secure, more up to date and more standardized.
For instance:
l PUT and DELETE actions can be posted to the server.
l The NodeJS Server can serve multiple static resources at once.
l Port numbers > 9999 are allowed.
l You can specify a HTTPS port separately.
l A Proxy list can be used to setup end points for redirecting requests to another server.
This could be useful if for example the Connect server is on another server which could
change; when it changes you’d only have to modify the proxy list instead of the
configuration.
l You can enable or disable authentication using users from an Active Directory server.
The NodeJS Server is only started automatically by Workflow when NodeJS input plugins are
detected in the configuration. If no NodeJS input plugins are present, the service ("ppNode") is
not started by Workflow; it can still be started manually, but will only serve static resources and
redirect requests to other servers.
