The *Sample Index* node retrieves values from a source geometry at a specific index.
.. tip::
+
If the *Geometry* used for the input is the same as the geometry from the :ref:`field context <field-context>`,
this node is equivalent to the :doc:`/modeling/geometry_nodes/utilities/field_at_index`. Using that node is
- usually preferrable since avoding the geometry socket makes the whole setup easier to use in other situations

and share.
+.. tip::
+ Different components can have same attribute domain (Points).
+ This node simply uses first component that not empty for such domain,
+ checked in the order of: Mesh, Point Cloud, Curve.
+ The :doc:`/modeling/geometry_nodes/geometry/separate_components` can be used to sample directly from a specific component.
