Sometimes you build a node exactly the way you want it and don’t want anyone (or even yourself) moving it or changing settings by mistake. That’s where Lock the Node helps.
Once a node is locked, it stays protected until you unlock it again.
What Happens When a Node is Locked?
When a node is locked:
Settings and content stay protected
Editing is disabled
Lock icon appears above the node
Helps keep flows clean and stable
Flow owner and users the flow is shared with can still run/execute the node
This is especially useful for shared flows, approved setups, templates, or final versions.
How to Lock a Node
Hover over the node
Use the top action menu
Click the Lock icon
Node is now locked
You’ll see the lock state visually on the node.
How to Unlock a Node
Hover over the locked node
Click the Unlock icon
Node becomes editable again
Best Times to Use Lock
Use Lock when:
A flow is finalized
You’re sharing with teammates
Important prompt/settings should not change or seen by others
Keeping template nodes safe
Quick Tip
Lock only the important nodes — keep the rest flexible so editing stays fast and easy.
