Hi All,

There might be requirement to store the records temporarily in Datastore and use it later till all entries are
consumed. For this article I have created two I ows one is to store payload using WRITE operation and another
I ow is to fetch all the records from Datastore using SELECT operation in group of two. Hope this will be usefully
to other who trying to achieve the same.

IFlow 1 – WRITE operation to store data. I am using ID value from incoming payload to generate entry IDs in
Datastore.

IFlow 2 – I am using loop process call to fetch all the entries from datastore in group of 2. To avoid passing last
empty records to target system I am using router. This will suppress processing of empty record.

Below is the used condition for the loop

So my loop will end whenever select step will give me empty entry or max number of iterations are reached. I
am fetching records in group of 2 using SELECT operation.

Please share your thoughts if there are any other ways to achieve this.

Learning :-

With GET operation this is not possible, GET is used for fetching single record at a time.
This looks for the entry ID to fetch the data
If we have selected save header values during WRITE operation, this can be fetched with GET operation

You can download datastore record to check header

With SELECT we can group the records and can be used with loop call

!Happy Learning!
