# Split text & List selector

### Split text

The Split node takes one text input and breaks it into distinct parts based on a delimiter you define. Each segment then flows through downstream nodes individually.

### List node

Display and select from multiple items to create workflow branches.

The List node receives multiple text items and presents them as a selectable list. You manually choose which item to process further, giving you control over workflow direction without regenerating content.

### When to use them

* **Batch image/video generation**: Split a single AI Text output (e.g., brief) containing multiple prompts into separate prompts, each feeding its own image or video generation node.
* **Variation/branch workflows**: Generate multiple prompts once, then branch into separate generation paths based on your selections. For example, run the same base concept through multiple creative directions at once.
* **Processing structured content**: Break apart lists, CSV data, or any formatted text into individual items.

### How to use them

You can have a look at [this template agent](https://api.pletor.ai/s/f4b54615-b7f3-444e-a7be-34f5a9e32534) to start building with these nodes.

### When to use List vs. Human Review node

* **List node**: Choose between multiple different text options generated in the same run.
* **Control node**: Pause to review and/or edit/refine output(s) before continuing.
