Guide / Every rule

Label on a flow that needs none

The check bpmnlint/superfluous-label, in the group Modelling rules.

Advice

Why it matters

Only the flows out of a decision, the conditional flows and the default flow say something with a label; on any other it repeats the picture.

How to fix it

Delete the label.

Where you see it

The editor puts a marker on the element while you draw, and the Problems tab of the sidebar lists it under Rules, with the rule name bpmnlint/superfluous-label. In a terminal, penstock check --only rules reports it.

To change how strict this rule is, set superfluous-label to error, warn or off in your .bpmnlintrc. See Validation.
