Steps to connect flowchart nodes

Reveal connection points
Hover your mouse over the node (shape) you wish to start from. You will see small dots appear around its edges; these are the connection points.
3
Click and drag the connector
Click on one of the connection dots and hold the mouse button. Drag the resulting line toward the node you want to link it to.
4
Snap to the target node
Drag the connector line to a connection dot on the second node. When you release the mouse, the line will automatically snap into place, creating a permanent link.
5
Review the connection
Once connected, the nodes will remain linked even if you move them around the canvas, ensuring your process flow stays intact.
