This node is part of the legacy Quick Form nodes and will be deprecated soon. The replacement for this node can be found in the configuration/widget nodes. For more information on these new nodes see this blog post .
\n \t\t\t\nQuickform node that allows choosing single or multiple files, workflows or directories from a remote mountpoint and exposing those items in a data table. The first selected item is exposed as a flow variable as well.
\n \nThe node supports custom CSS styling. You can simply put CSS rules into a single string and set it as a flow variable 'customCSS' in the node configuration dialog. You will find the list of available classes and their description on our documentation page .
