Flow Step Settings

Each flow component in Fastn, such as a Switch, Loop, or Action step, includes a Settings panel where you can define behavior, retry logic, and notes for that step.

⚙️Settings

Use this section to control how the step executes and interacts with the rest of the flow.

To access these options, click the Settings icon in the top-right corner of the component. Once opened, you’ll see the following fields:

Stops the entire flow immediately if this step encounters an error.

Step Note (optional)

Add notes or comments about the purpose or logic of this step. This helps collaborators understand context and reasoning within the flow.
