- Flows
  This documentation describes how Flows can be run from REST API, listeners, or they can be scheduled.
  - Nodes
  - Terminals
  - Flow terminals
    Flow terminals represent the inputs and outputs to a flow. Every node has input and/or ouptut terminals.
  - Scheduled flows
    This documentation describes the options for defining the flow schedule.
  - Listener
    A Flow that has a Map node as its first node, and uses a File adapter for an input, can enable that node's input to be a Watch.
  - Flow audits
    Flow audits are a way to retrieve more verbose information about a flow instance.
  - Flow and Node Timing
    The flow audit provides information about the execution time of a flow and its individual nodes.
  - Flow Load Balancing
  - Flow variables
    Flow Variables are process data variables that go along with the flow execution, accessible to all nodes in the flow while it is being executed under flow executor/engine context.
  - Create a flow
    Steps required to create a flow.
  - Running flows in the Designer
    When you develop a flow in the Flow Designer you can run the flow directly from the Designer either in Link, or on a different runtime environment.
- Maps
  Maps define input and output specifications and mapping rules for data transformation.
- Schemas
  Use the schema designer to define, modify, and view schemas. A schema describes the syntax, structure, and semantics of your data.
- Connections and Actions
  This documentation describes connections and actions.
- Files
  Files are used in various places within HCL Link. HCL Link allows files to be uploaded to the HCL Linkserver.
Services
Service definitions define REST services and the endpoints of a service. This guide provides step-by-step instructions for creating, importing, and managing services using the system interface, following Microsoft standards.
Connectors
This documentation describes the connectors and how they are used.
Packages
Servers
This documentation contains a description of the server groups and servers.
Variables
The variables described here include Configuration variables, flow variables, and cache variables.
Dashboards
A description of HCL Link dashboards, including the Server dashboard and the Kibana dashboard.
Runtimes
Descriptions of Link runtime services.
Resource Adapters
About the HCL Link Resource Adapters, and how to use them.
Cloud Native Link
Cloud Native Link refers to the HCL Link product installation on a Kubernetes cluster.
Reference
This documentation provides HCL Link reference information.

Node Timing Properties

Flow execution time: The elapsed_time property of the flow audit JSON object shows the total execution time of the flow.
Node logic time: In a node object, the elapsed_time property shows the execution time of the node's application logic.
Node framework time: The framework_time property shows node-related execution time that the elapsed_time does not include. This value depends on the implementation and can change between product versions.

Typically, the combined elapsed_time and framework_time for all nodes in a flow is slightly less than the flow's total elapsed_time.

Note:

Some flow time might not be associated with the application logic or framework time of any specific node.
