Input Ports
This Processor can have one or more input ports from which it receives data to process. It must have at least one input port, however.
A port can have a name and description. Names must exist and be unique within the Processor.
You can add an input port by clicking on Add Port
, or remove an input port by clicking on Delete
.
You cannot delete the port if it is the last one within the processor.
Because this Asset only provides minimal configuration options, it is usually not necessary to create it as a reusable Asset. If you plan to use it within a Workflow, simply add it as a Processor and - when asked - create it without an Asset.
