# START & END NODE
Here is where you can format the nodes at the start and end of your process independently to the rest of your nodes in the view. The Start and End nodes are not real nodes in your process event log but they indicate where your cases start their process. The lines from/to your Start/End nodes indicate the real Start/End points that are present in your data.
Have full formatting to edit these nodes including editing the text within the nodes under ‘label’

The configuration menu speaks for it self. You can enable/disable the StartEnd nodes, set line styles, coloring and labels. It is up to you if and how you visualize these nodes on your Process canvas.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.infotopics.com/processmining/configuration/configure-the-processmining-extension/start-and-end-node.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
