Hello Julien,

A common way to loop through records in a process is to use a flag field to mark the records to loop through and then un-flag them to move to the next record in the loop. See https://customerfx.com/article/how-to-loop-through-records-in-a-process…

Another method to do this is to read a collection of records that get passed to a sub-process. The sub process gets called for each record in the collection. See https://customerfx.com/article/working-with-a-collection-of-records-in-…

Dear Julien,

Thank you for your question!

The best way to create a Business Process with a for loop you would need to create a sub-process:

Signal "Contact Added" element: 

Read Data "Read Contact" element:

For the sub-process, you would need to specify the [Parameters] of it:

And make a filter of the element within the sub-process based on the ID:

And finally, you would need to specify this parameter in the parent Business Process:

This is it. The business process here would trigger upon a Contact being added, then it would fetch 50 top Contacts in the system and transfer them to the sub-process, which will do some required magic within it, and then would end.

You may customize this example in any way you would like.

Thank you very much !

Danyil Onoprienko,

I tried creating a for loop by using a flag but there the process stops after 100 records because there is a limit to each element.

If I'll create the subprocess option, will that resolve the problem?

Thanks,

Chani

Hi Chani,

In the process parameter you can specify the maximum repetition number for the process. If you put nothing, it will read the all collection.

Late answer !
