How to:

  1. Add the read feature property node to the canvas

  2. Connect in a feature

  3. Identify the property to read

    You could type the property into the box on the node, or connect a string or panel node.

    You could also feed in the get feature property name, which allows you to select a property from a drop down (useful when you aren’t sure of the property’s exact spelling and case).

  4. The output is the value stored in that feature property.

Read feature property differs from read property in that it can only read properties stored within the properties { } (curly brackets) on features.
