<figure><img src="/files/i31VFmQD56HLp0FaF2JY" alt=""><figcaption><p>The input node and its properties</p></figcaption></figure>

## Setup

The **Input** Node defines the data source for your network. It should be pointed to the input that will serve as your network's data source.

The input node have several properties:

* **Selected Input**: a dropdown from which an input can be selected in case multiple [Input Encoders](/tensorleap-integration/writing-integration-code/input-encoder.md) were registered in the [integration script](/tensorleap-integration/writing-integration-code.md).
* **Name**: The name of the selected input encoder in the integration script
* **Shape**: The inferred shape of the input encoder in the integration script

{% hint style="info" %}
In case your model was linked with a code integration via [leap projects push](/tensorleap-integration/uploading-with-cli/cli-assets-upload.md#uploading-both-a-code-and-model) command, this input might be automatically selected when uploading a model. In case you have multiple inputs to your model, you would need to select which input should be associated with each node.
{% endhint %}
