Description
In Salesforce Flow Builder, a loop is a control element that allows you to repeat a set of actions for each record in a collection of records.
For example, let's say you have a collection of Accounts that you want to update. Using a loop, you can iterate through each record in the collection and perform the same set of actions on each record, such as updating a field or creating a related record.
There are two types of loops in Flow Builder:
For Loop: A For Loop allows you to iterate through a collection of records or a list of values a specified number of times. You can use this type of loop when you know the exact number of times you want to repeat the actions.
Fast Lookup Loop: A Fast Lookup Loop is used when you want to iterate through a collection of records or a list of values, and you don't know the exact number of times you want to repeat the actions. This type of loop is typically used with larger data sets because it is optimized for performance.
Loops are powerful tools in Flow Builder and can help you automate repetitive tasks and streamline your business processes.
