API Style

Choose if the Actionflow should:

  • Wait for result (Synchronous) (Default): The API waits for the results or the timeout to occur. Note: If the timeout occurs the command is aborted.
  • Poll for result (Asynchronous): The API is called and a response is returned immediately including the process ID. Subsequent API calls can be made using the process ID to fetch the status of the action. The asynchronous mode can be thought of as “fire and forget”.
URLDisplays the URL for the API that is used to call it. This field is read only.

Advanced

FieldDescription
Prioritise throughput over ordering

When enabled, records are processed in parallel to optimise performance. This means the order records are processed is nondeterministic.

When disabled (default), records are processed in the order they are provided.

Allow Parallel Runs from One Client

When enabled, allows an Actionflow to be run multiple times in parallel from the same client, i.e. another run can be started while the previous run is still being processed.

This option is disabled by default.
