Text and time nodes
These nodes are configured directly in the flow editor. Use Text Contains for a case-insensitive branch, Time Now for timestamps, and Format Time for display text. A connected input overrides the matching property.
For durations, pass seconds to Format Time. For a clock time, select its Unix timestamp mode and the intended timezone. Check Error if formatting fails.
