JSON Canvas Node Reference

Full attribute tables and JSON examples for each node type.

Text Nodes

  "y": 0,
  "width": 400,
  "height": 200,
  "text": "# Hello World\n\nThis is **Markdown** content."

Newline pitfall: Use \n for line breaks. Do not use literal newlines (invalid JSON) or \\n (renders as \n on screen).

  "x": 500,
  "y": 0,
  "width": 400,
  "height": 300,
  "file": "Attachments/diagram.png"
}

With heading anchor:

{
  "id": "a1b2c3d4e5f67891",
  "type": "file",
  "x": 500,
  "y": 350,
  "width": 400,

Group Nodes

Groups are visual containers for organizing other nodes. Position child nodes inside the group's coordinate bounds.

AttributeRequiredTypeDescription
labelNostringText label for the group

{
  "id": "d4e5f6789012345a",
  "type": "group",
  "x": -50,
  "y": -50,
  "width": 1000,
  "height": 600,
  "label": "Project Overview",
  "color": "4"
}

A child node must have its top-left corner (x, y) and full bounds (x+width, y+height) within the group's rectangle. For group above: child x must be in [-50, 950] and y in [-50, 550].
