If the Send Immediate Response to client option is selected, the response file is sent back
right away and the involvement of the input task ends then.
However, if this option is not checked, it means there is a second output that comes out of the
NodeJS Server Input task: the last output generated by PlanetPress Workflow is sent back to
the initial input, by which it is returned to the client.
Even if the process ends with a Delete task, it is still returned to the client; deleting the job file
only means you are not doing anything with it locally.
Note
You can serve static resources through PlanetPress Workflow, which is especially useful
for images, CSS and JavaScript files. See "NodeJS Server Input plugin preferences 2"
on page820.
