What This Node Does

The Transform node is the workhorse of a Flow. One node selects fields, filters rows, aggregates, pivots, and adds calculated fields. It replaces what used to be many separate nodes, so most of your data shaping happens right here. Transform is organized into three working tabs, a row Limit toggle, and a Dedupe option to remove duplicate rows. The formula reference lives beside every formula field on the Fields tab — click the ? button next to a field to search the function library and read a function’s documentation without leaving the field.

When to Use This Node

Use the Transform node when you want to:
  • Select, rename, or reorder fields and add calculated fields
  • Filter, group, and aggregate your data
  • Pivot rows into columns
  • Rank rows or build running totals
  • Remove duplicate rows or cap how many rows pass through

The Three Tabs

1

Fields

Select, rename, and reorder your fields, and add formula or calculated fields.
2

Configure PivotTable

Use the Filters / Columns / Rows / Values bucket grid to filter, group, aggregate, and pivot your data, all by dragging fields into buckets.

Advanced

Reach for window functions like running totals and rankings, plus unpivot to reshape columns back into rows.
Use the Dedupe option to drop duplicate rows, and the Limit toggle to cap the number of rows that move downstream.
If a transformation does not fit any tab, drop into the SQL/Python node for custom logic.
