The Published Inputs and Published Outputs Units are different from other Units. They can be seen as the "interface" which can be accessed by other Workflows (or Applications). Each Workflow has exactly one Published Inputs and one Published Outputs Unit. They are initially empty. This screenshot shows an example of Published Inputs and Published Outputs.

  2. Hover the Cable over the Published Inputs Unit.
  3. Single click to release the Cable.
  4. A new Published Input will be created on the Published Input Unit.
