Iterator lets you loop through an array of records and perform actions on each one. It’s essential for workflows that need to process multiple records returned by Search Records or received via webhooks.
Iterator is currently in beta. Activate it under Settings → Releases → Lab.

​
When to Use Iterator

ScenarioPříklad
Process search resultsSend email to each person found
Handle webhook arraysCreate records for each item in order
Bulk updatesUpdate multiple records with calculated values
NotificationsAlert multiple people about an event

​
Understanding Iterator

Iterator expects an array as input. It then:
  1. Takes the first item from the array
  2. Runs all actions inside the iterator with that item
  3. Moves to the next item
  4. Repeats until all items are processed

​
Basic Setup

​
Example: Email Everyone in Search Results

Goal: Find all contacts in a specific company and send each one a personalized email.

​
Step 1: Search for Records

  1. Add Search Records action
  2. Object: People
  3. Filter: Company equals “Acme Inc”
  4. This returns an array of people

​
Step 2: Check Results Exist

  1. Add Filter action
  2. Condition: {{searchRecords.length}} is greater than 0
  3. This prevents Iterator errors on empty results

​
Step 3: Add Iterator

  1. Add Iterator action
  2. Array input: Select {{searchRecords}}
  3. This creates a loop

​
Step 4: Add Actions Inside Iterator

Actions placed after Iterator run for each item:
  1. Add Send Email action (inside iterator)
  2. To: {{iterator.currentItem.email}}
  3. Subject: Hello {{iterator.currentItem.firstName}}!
  4. Body: Personalized message using current item fields

​
Výsledek

If Search Records returns 5 people, the Iterator:
  • Sends email to person 1
  • Sends email to person 2
  • … continues for all 5

​
Accessing Current Item Data

Inside Iterator, use {{iterator.currentItem}} to access the current record:
VariablePopis
{{iterator.currentItem}}The entire current record object
{{iterator.currentItem.id}}Record ID
{{iterator.currentItem.email}}Email field
{{iterator.currentItem.company.name}}Related company name
{{iterator.index}}Current position in array (0-based)

​
Common Patterns

​
Update Multiple Records

Goal: Mark all overdue tasks as “Late” 
1. Search Records (Tasks, Due Date < Today, Status ≠ Completed)
2. Filter (length > 0)
3. Iterator (searchRecords)
   └── Update Record
       - Object: Tasks
       - Record: {{iterator.currentItem.id}}
       - Status: Late

​
Create Records from Array

Goal: Webhook receives order with multiple items, create a record for each 
1. Webhook Trigger (receives items array)
2. Filter (items.length > 0)
3. Iterator (trigger.body.items)
   └── Create Record
       - Object: Order Items
       - Name: {{iterator.currentItem.name}}
       - Quantity: {{iterator.currentItem.qty}}
       - Related Order: {{trigger.body.orderId}}

​
Conditional Processing Inside Loop

Goal: Only send email to contacts with valid emails 
1. Search Records (People)
2. Iterator (searchRecords)
   └── Filter (currentItem.email is not empty)
       └── Send Email
           - To: {{iterator.currentItem.email}}

Řešení potíží

​
”Iterator expects an array”

Cause: You passed a single record instead of an array. Fix: Make sure you’re passing the result of Search Records or an array field, not a single record. 
✅ Correct: {{searchRecords}}
❌ Wrong: {{searchRecords[0]}}

​
Iterator Doesn’t Run

Cause: The array is empty. Fix: Add a Filter before Iterator to check array length: 
Filter: {{searchRecords.length}} > 0

​
Actions Run Too Many Times

Cause: Search Records returned more records than expected. Fix:
  • Add more specific filters to Search Records
  • Set a limit on Search Records (max 200)
  • Add Filter inside Iterator for additional conditions

​
Performance Considerations

  • Credit usage: Each iteration consumes credits for its actions
  • Time: Large arrays take longer to process
  • Limits: Consider batching very large operations
  • Rate limits: External API calls may hit rate limits with many iterations

​
Osvědčené postupy

  1. Always check array length before Iterator to avoid errors
  2. Add filters inside loops when not all items need processing
  3. Rename your Iterator step to describe what it’s looping through
  4. Test with small arrays before processing large datasets
  5. Monitor workflow runs to ensure iterations complete as expected
