• Description - Optional description for the text.

Options

How It Works

The Streaming Text node creates a widget that displays text content with a streaming effect. When executed, the node:

1. Validates the provided Session ID and Text
2. Retrieves the session information for the provided ID
3. Creates a streaming text widget with the specified text content, label, and description
4. Sends the widget to the client with the specified session ID

Requirements

• A valid session ID for an active client connection
• Valid text content to display
• Properly configured client interface that can display streaming text widgets

Error Handling

The node will return specific errors in the following cases:

• Empty or invalid Session ID
• Session not found for the provided ID
• Text is required but not provided
• Text is empty
• Failed to send widget to client

Usage Notes

• The Session ID must match an active client connection
• The streaming text widget is a visual element only and does not collect user input
• The Label and Description fields are optional but can help users understand what the text content represents
• The streaming effect simulates typing text character by character for a more engaging user experience
