Description

Figma: https://www.figma.com/file/2Uvr2jOaQh6rQNR1cHlLKM/App?type=design&node-id=255-3184&mode=design


Overview:

  • To indicate to user that the end of the workflow is coming up I'd like to include a node for "End of Workflow"
  • There will be nothing that happens when the user clicks this, and is completely a cosmetic improvement.

We have two choices on how to introduce this:
Option 1:

  • Extend JSON payload to include end node
  • Include End node in Platform Yaml export file

Option 2:

  • The frontend will need to calculate that it is the end of the graph

Prior to kicking this off, please chat in the dev channel about which approach to take

Research direction

No files, tests, or code entry points are named. Start with the linked Figma design, then discuss Option 1 versus Option 2 in the dev channel before implementation; done means the workflow displays a non-interactive end node using the agreed approach.
