I only started using self replicating processes in Workflow about a year ago. Did not realise the benefit of it for a long while. I have a job that communicates with an external API and without self replicating the mapper takes 18 hours as apposed to 3 hours.
What are users going to do when converting Workflow processes into Automate in this regard?
It does this by default and will just run however many are queued up at the same time, which I actually find to be a problem. You have to mess about putting a gate at the start to stop other jobs coming through, but then have to put nodes in after every step to open it back up again.
Unless someone can tell me a different way then I’m struggling to see how I can use automate moving forward
Can you give a bit more context on what a job looks like? Things like how often jobs arrive, how long they run, and whether they need to be processed strictly one-at-a-time (or as batches) make a big difference to which pattern works best.
