Get collection data

In workflows that use collection data, you can use theGet collection dataaction to retrieve collection information from your store. You can use this action in any workflow, including theScheduled timetrigger. In a workflow that uses theScheduled timetrigger, the workflow starts at a time that you've specified, rather than as a result of an event. Because there is no specific event in your store or from an app that starts the workflow, there is no data automatically included.
