What this node does

Input Text is an Input stage (ComfyTV/Input). It has no AI model and no ▶ Run: you type into its multiline text box and the value becomes this stage’s output, passed to downstream stages in real time as you edit. Use it wherever a stage takes a COMFYTV_TEXT input—prompts for Image / Video / 3D Model stages, extra context, lyrics, captions, or notes you want to route into the graph. Text flows as a ComfyTV COMFYTV_TEXT snapshot. To interoperate with native ComfyUI string nodes, insert a Bridge — see bridges.md.

​
When to use it

  • Author a shared prompt once and fan it out to several generation stages.
  • Provide extra textual context (style notes, constraints) to an Image / Video / 3D Model stage’s texts inputs.
  • Keep an editable caption or note as a wired node rather than retyping it per stage.

​
Parameters

​
text

Multiline text box (default empty). Whatever you type here becomes the text output. It updates downstream live as you edit—no Run needed.

​
project_id / parent_output_id (internal)

Hidden; maintained by the Project node and graph wiring. You rarely touch these.

Tips

  • No ▶ Run button is normal for Input stages—editing the box is the action.
  • One Input Text can feed many stages; edit it once to update them all.
  • 3D Model Stage / Image Stage / Video Stage — common downstream; accept COMFYTV_TEXT context.
  • Load Image / Load Video / Load Audio — same Input family for media files.
