Node Data Type Property

When you add a node data type property to an expression, you can perform a property transformation, derive a property value, enforce a custom validation, filter subscription requests, filter approval or notification polices, or filter extracts using a property with a data type of Node. You can select the following attributes of the node that is being referenced by the property.
