Setting up and managing parameters

Updated over 3 weeks ago

This video will walk you through the process of setting up, displaying, and hiding different parameters in a Whisper Node, specifically for video transcription purposes.

By following the steps outlined below, you will learn how to customize your nodes to better meet your needs and optimize user input.

Step 1: Accessing the settings

To modify the parameters shown on your node, start by clicking the gear icon button located on the node interface.

Step 2: Adding or hiding parameters

  • After accessing the Settings, you'll see a list of available parameters.

  • Locate the parameter you wish to show or hide.

  • Click on the respective eye icon associated with the parameter to display or hide it on the node.

Step 3: Customizing input fields

If you want to set a specific parameter to require user input (like language identification), you'll need to edit your Start node:

  • Click on the Add a new input button.

  • A form will appear prompting you to specify the input type. In this case, select Text.

  • Enter the name of the parameter (e.g., Language) and then press Save.

Step 4: Connecting inputs to outputs

Once you have created the new input, it will appear as an output on your node. The final step is to link the new input with the output:

  • Connect the Language input parameter with the language output parameter on the node.

Step 5: Finalizing changes

After making your adjustments, the system will ensure that any input provided by the user in the Language field is automatically transferred to the corresponding parameter in the node.

Summary of parameter management

Show/Hide parameters: Use the Settings button and manage which parameters are displayed.

Add input fields: Create new input fields by selecting Add a new input, choosing the input type, and naming it appropriately.

Connect inputs: Ensure that the newly added input fields are connected to their respective parameter outputs.

By following these instructions, you will successfully customize your nodes to include user-specified inputs while maintaining the functionality of automatic data transfer. Happy building on Skate!
