Summary
- Use {{}} syntax for all dynamic content; access current node data with $json, other nodes with $node["Node Name"], and webhook payloads from $json.body (not root)
- Node names are case-sensitive and require quotes; field names with spaces use bracket notation like $json['field name']
- Code nodes use direct JavaScript access without {{}} braces; expressions don't work in webhook paths or credential fields
- Common mistakes include missing braces, incorrect webhook data paths, and double-wrapping with nested {{}}
