- JSON marshaling errors (rare)
Usage Notes
- This node is useful for initializing JSON objects at the beginning of a workflow
- The created object is empty and can be populated using other JSON nodes like Set
- Works as a starting point for building JSON structures programmatically
- Can be combined with Set node to add key-value pairs to the empty object
- Useful when you need a clean JSON object to work with
- The output is a valid JSON object that can be used with other JSON processing nodes
- Can be used multiple times in a workflow to create separate JSON objects
