# Add Sub-graph

### Adding a new sub-graph

To add a new [**sub-graph**](/aitheon-core/main-elements/sub-graphs.md) in order to fill it with some [**nodes**](/aitheon-core/main-elements/nodes.md) to make tasks you need, open[ **TOOLBOX**](/aitheon-core/main-elements/toolbox.md) at the bottom-left corner of the Aitheon Core interface table **(1)**:

It will open the area where you can choose elements to add.

Drag and drop the Sub-graph box to the graph table, then close the **TOOLBOX** area. Your sub-graph will appear at the point where you dropped it.

Zoom in with the button "**+**" at the bottom-right corner. You can also use mouse wheel or your fingers on a touchpad.

Drag the table for your convenience.

### Settings

Open Settings with three dots at the top-right corner of your new sub-graph. You will see **IO SETTINGS** ("input-output settings").

Add [**inputs and outputs** ](/aitheon-core/main-elements/inputs-and-outputs.md)that you need for this sub-graph **(1)**. If your sub-graph has to receive multiple inputs of the same type choose the **Multiple** option **(2)**. Outputs are multiple by default.

Write a name for the input (or output) and choose where it must appear on the sub-graph **(3)**. The **center** option will place this input (output) at both sides of the sub-graph. 

{% hint style="info" %}
This is useful for a clearer appearance of the sub-graph - place input/output point on the convenient side to wire it with other sub-graphs (nodes). 
{% endhint %}

Choose an appropriate [**Socket** ](/aitheon-core/main-elements/inputs-and-outputs.md)type for the input (output) **(4)**. You will be able to connect nodes and sub-graphs through compatible (similar) sockets. If you choose **AnyData** from the **Common** socket group, this input (or output) will connect to any type of sockets, but it will change its own type with the first connection accordingly. 

To delete an input or output, press the **trash bin icon** next to it **(5)**.

{% hint style="info" %}
Click **RUN** at the top-right corner of the graph to deploy the changes that you made.
{% endhint %}
