Built for Node-RED

Share a flow.
Keep the context.

Paste a Node-RED export, add a few notes and get a link you can send anywhere. Public flows help the community; private flows stay unlisted.

Anonymous flows older than ten days may be removed when nodeBin exceeds 1,000 stored flows.

Before sharing, remove passwords, API keys, access tokens and private hostnames from your flow.

Free Node-RED flow sharing

Share automation flows without losing the visual context.

nodeBin is a free pastebin and visual library built specifically for Node-RED. Instead of sending an unexplained JSON file, you can publish a flow with a description, a copy-ready export and an interactive preview of its nodes and wires.

01

Paste valid Node-RED JSON

Exports are checked for Node-RED node IDs, types, positions and wire structure before they are stored.

02

Choose public or private

Public flows join the searchable community library. Private flows receive an unlisted secret link.

03

Copy and import

Open a shared flow, inspect its visual layout and copy the original JSON back into the Node-RED editor.

What can you share?

Node-RED examples for real automation work.

MQTT and IoT

Document device telemetry, topic routing, payload transformation and edge automation flows.

APIs and webhooks

Publish HTTP request, webhook, authentication and data-processing examples for other developers.

Industrial automation

Common questions

Node-RED flow sharing FAQ

What is a Node-RED flow?

A Node-RED flow is a collection of connected nodes that receives, transforms and sends messages. Node-RED exports flows as JSON, which can be imported into another compatible Node-RED editor.

Does nodeBin include passwords and credentials?

Node-RED normally stores formal node credentials separately, but custom nodes can still place tokens, hostnames or personal information in ordinary properties. Always inspect an export before publishing it.

Do I need an account?

No. Anonymous sharing is available, but older anonymous flows may be removed when nodeBin exceeds 1,000 stored flows. Flows attached to an active account are excluded from automatic capacity cleanup.

Can I share custom Node-RED nodes?

Yes. nodeBin accepts custom node types as long as the export has a valid Node-RED structure. Someone importing the flow must install the same node packages separately.
