Multiple parallel actions?

Not Yet Reviewed

I have several integrations where I need to perform 2 (or in one case, 3) actions on Event.created.  I can link them together in series, but they really don't relate to each other and I think if one failed it would block the subsequent ones from triggering.

Basically a "Y" connector is what I'm looking for...

  • Tobias (our CTO) and I were just talking about the difference between building parallel execution, vs defining error handling behaviors for steps. There are some things that get tricky with parallel behavior that have kept us from doing it.

    But one thing I am curious about is: do you feel there is a logical difference between what you are asking for, and having a setting for "continue on error" available on the steps you want to execute? It would seem to get you to the same place.

  • I just realized I could move the 2nd flow in front of the switch. That would work for me, until someone comes up with a business rule on that one. I can't stack a switch on top of another switch, because it has discrete outputs and I can only just pick one as an input.

  • Thank you Charles. We are actively working on the ability to allow an input accept multiple inputs (sort of the opposite of your request where you want an output to create multiple outputs). Logically speaking, I think this represents your two green lines. That should be coming very soon.

  • Hi Charles - it looks like the deployment happened today. So you should be able to connect multiple inputs to the same step now. Give it a try!
