Overview of the Go To action

The Go To action allows a workflow to jump from its current step to another defined step in the flow. This allows for advanced branching, loopbacks, and conditional navigation without duplicating logic.

Purpose

To direct the workflow to a specified step or action elsewhere in the flow, based on logic or runtime conditions.

Parameters

1 Select an Action
1 Run Limit

Output

None

Understanding the Go To action

The Go To action lets you redirect the execution path of your workflow to another predefined step. It acts like a jump, enabling you to bypass sections of a workflow or return to a specific action and continue from that point.

Select an Action

Choose the step in the workflow to jump to when this action runs.

Run Limit

Set the maximum number of times this action can be executed during a single workflow run up to 10 times.

Working with the Go To action

This action is especially powerful when used with expressions or conditions. The action does not process or return any data of its own, but simply reroutes the workflow execution.

You must chose from the Select an Action dropdown, which sets the destination action the workflow will continue from once the Go To action is reached.

⚠️ Caution

Be mindful that creating circular references or jumping backward inappropriately may lead to unintended looping behaviour or workflow failures.

Take care when deleting an action to also remove any logic using its outputs: workflow steps may function incorrectly or break if they attempt to evaluate an output of a deleted action.
