Canvas nodes

Sort

Order rows by one or more text, numeric, or date columns.

How it works

Add sort fields in priority order and choose text, numeric, or date handling for each. Set each field to ascending or descending.

Click Sort on Canvas to open its settings and output. The output is ordered from largest to smallest Amount.

Simple example

Set Amount to numeric and descending on an invoice table. The highest invoice totals appear first in the node output.

Complex workflow

Sort a delivery log by Route as text, then by DeliveryDate as a date with newest first, then by Priority as a number with highest first. The output groups routes and applies the later criteria to ties.
