Edition limits

AI Table automation supports node-level loops — set rules and the loop repeats the same action until the task is done. Max iterations per loop node by edition:

Use cases

  1. Bulk-create subtasks (loop over string) Description: Type multiple task names into a text field separated by commas — automation splits the string and creates a row per task (or pick multiple options in a multi-select; the system splits and creates subtasks for you). Example: In store-opening process management, the prep team needs to create a dozen line items as subtasks once a new store’s opening date is locked — see the store-opening template.
  2. Dispatch repeated tasks to a team (loop over array) Description: Every Monday, look up all team members and create a “Submit weekly report” task for each one. Quick create: Highly reusable — AI Table has packaged this as a quick-reminder template. Use the quick-reminder entry point to configure it.

Loop types

Loop typeCore behaviorExampleTypical scenario
Loop over arrayIterate a list of records and run the same action on each.E.g. results returned by “Look up records”.DM each owner the open tasks assigned to them.
Loop over stringSplit a string by a delimiter (e.g. comma) and run the action on each part.E.g. user submits a row with 10 emails comma-separated in one cell.Bulk-message a list of email addresses submitted in one shot.
Loop by countRun a fixed action N times — common for bulk creation.A range like 1 to 20.Click a button to loop 10 times and create 10 sequentially numbered records (Asset-001 through Asset-010).

FAQ

  • Q: How are runs counted when using the workflow loop? A: Each “Loop” node counts iterations within one workflow run — a loop with one node iterating 200 times counts as 200.
  • Q: What’s the max loop count per edition? A: Per single automation run:
