Based on user feedback, we decided to make two commercial workflow plugins open-source:
Why open source?
These plugins are among the most frequently used in workflows and are often required after SQL or HTTP Request nodes. When they were commercial plugins, community-edition users were unable to fully use the HTTP Request node, which created a poor experience. That is why we are making them open-source.
Plugin overview
JSON Calculation
Handles complex JSON produced by upstream nodes, allowing you to compute, extract, or reshape the data.
Common use cases include:
- SQL query results
- Data returned from HTTP requests It helps convert these outputs into the variable formats and field values needed by downstream nodes.
JSON Variable Mapping
Maps complex JSON structures into variables that are easier to use in later workflow steps.
Common use cases include:
- Extracting key fields from nested JSON returned by APIs or SQL
- Renaming fields or adjusting array structures
- Preparing cleaner variables for subsequent nodes
With this plugin, you avoid repeatedly configuring deep field paths in every node.
Adjustments for existing customers
Your entitlements will remain unchanged. We will refund plugin points as follows:
- Lifetime use, 1-year upgrade → 2 points
- Lifetime use & upgrade → 4 points
These adjustments will be completed for all existing customers by November 23, 2025, and NocoBase’s parent company will provide the final interpretation.
In closing
Thank you to all NocoBase users and open-source contributors. Your feedback and issues help us improve with every release. We will continue to move faster and deliver stronger capabilities at a more friendly price.
