info

Video and database files are, due to file size, only stored locally in your browser.

Importing local files​

  1. Drag in one or more files from your computer
  2. Drop it/them onto the canvas
  3. A node representing that data is automatically created

For allowing your user to upload files in your app, use the File Upload widget in the user interface.

To replace an existing image file:

  1. Select the image node(s) you want to replace
  2. Drag in the new image file from your computer
  3. Press Shift and drop it/them onto the canvas
  4. The old image(s) will be replaced with the new one(s)
