For each

TheFor eachaction performs an action on every item in a list, when that action is connected to theDo this for each itemoption. This action functions on lists, such as line items in an order or in workflows that retrieve data by using one of the following actions:

After you add theFor eachaction, select either or both of the following options:

ClickThento add a single action or a condition. This action is taken after all the actions performed byDo this for each itemare complete.
ClickDo this for each itemto add an action to perform on every entry in the list returned by aGetaction.

For example, you create a workflow that runs once a week. The workflow uses theGet order dataaction to retrieve orders placed during that week and applies a tag to each one. After all the tags are applied, an email is sent indicating that tagging is complete.

Example of a workflow that retrieves a list of orders placed in the past week and adds a tag to each order, then sends an email.

Considerations for using the For each action

Review the following considerations before you use theFor eachaction:

The list that you use in theFor eachaction can't have more than 100 items. If the selected list has more than 100 items, then the workflow fails and all actions following theFor eachaction are not taken.
The following actions can't followDo this for each item:
- AnotherFor eachaction
- TheWaitaction
- TheGet collection dataaction
- TheGet customer dataaction
- TheGet draft order dataaction
- TheGet order dataaction
- TheGet product dataaction

Only one condition or action can immediately followDo this for each item. You can add multiple additional conditions after this, but each option can only lead to a single condition or action.

For example, you create a workflow that uses theFor eachaction. You clickDo this for each itemand add a condition. In this condition, and in every condition following it, only one action or condition can be added to either theThenorOtherwiseoptions.

Example of a workflow that uses multiple conditions after Do this for each action.
