How to Run a Loop in Bubble.io

[@bob93219]

Thanks so much Evan, this video is a life saver! I had been scratching my head about how to dynamically update / loop through my bubble database for weeks, and your video solved my issue in under 12 minutes!

[@shivampujara4481]

This is so great! I saw this video and went these are the kind of people who should be famous on this platform! Thank you!

[@jamesnoeldavies]

Perfect explanation. I managed to solve my (increasingly annoying!!) issue after I watched this. Thanks

[@XCmdr007]

I thought I understood Bubble endpoints. With this great explanation some knowledge gaps that I had were sorted out. Thank you Evan!

[@ahmedelkaffas3098]

Thanks Evan for this video ! it's clear and straight to the point ! I applied the same technique to my application and it worked like charm !

Thank you!

Thanks Evan for this very helpful tutorial. My first backend Workflow is finished and running :)

[@opsjesse]

came here with the same question and then i figured it out. it's because this instruction is at the last step of the workflow. the first step of this workflow is already on the iteration = count step. hope that helps anyone finding this thread now 2 years later lol

[@coco_n_joe]

Amazing! Thanks a ton. Look forward to working with you sometime.

[@AndrewOnTestingCars]

Thank you very much! Great explanation!

[@germansoldier967]

Great video. Thanks. At 10:29. Not sure what you did to put in the two emails. What kind of input element did you use here?

[@franvilasnovas]

Nice explanation !! Thanks

Thank you so much evan

[@ohyoonkwon6423]

Thanks for the great instruction! Have a question about 'Only when' iteration < emails: count. Shouldn't it be

[@davidsal8308]

the condition checking is at the very end so this is similar to a do...while() loop structure. Thus it should be "

[@fadycredi1807]

Thanks Evan for this! Its so useful, yet do you know how to do the same with frontend workflows. I tried the same concept with Custom States, yet I get an error "Sorry, we ran into a temporary bug and can't complete your request. We'll fix it as soon as we can; please try again in a bit!" Thanks :)

Thank you, you helped me alot with this amazing video

[@julien_cameron]

This works great. How about when the item is a list and you want to "add list" ? Thanks

[@andreasv9472]

Did you find the answer?

[@danbernaldev]

Gracias Evan! gran tutorial, me va ayudar mucho. Saludos!

[@gustavopoiava]

Thanks for the explanation! Do you have any suggestion for when i have inputs in the repeating group? As Bubble doesn´t consider the group of inputs a list, it doesn´t appear in the options for list parameters. Thanks!!

[@jonhegarty4269]

Thanks, this makes sense. Is there anyway you could share the editor publicly?

[@jattism2]

Thanks!!! This is great.

Thanks for the helpful video. I am stuck on something I hope you can advise me with:
I have a form with various input types, when the user clicks “send”, it creates a new thing (job order).
One of the inputs on this form is a multi-choice drop-down. In most cases a user will only select one choice. But in the event that the user selects more than one, in the workflow I want to create a new thing for each selection he chooses.
Following your video instructions, I created the new input, but my first action then is "create a new thing" and not create a new email as in your video. However when I create a new thing, there is no option to add an item# as in minute 4:26 of this video.
Your advice will be appreciated.

I'm making an api call to my database checking inventory. With items count at the end show I count from my api or my database.

[@tibuigerard1564]

cannot connect to the link you gave.

[@stuartwarren11]

what will happen if the iteration value exceeds the total number of records in the list? For example if i wanted to cycle through a list of 4 records twice, if i change the only when rule to be iteration < 8, would this work or will it not work as the 5 iteration will be a null record? I have a dynamic value i can use in the only when rule as well.

[@davidsal8308]

if you want to cycle through a list of records twice you can use the modulus operator

[@uristrauss6106]

Super useful. Thanks!

[@janheinemeyer4726]

Thanks for the video Evan! I was wondering how this approach is different from scheduling an API flow on a list as explained here: czcams.com/video/LLYaNHmt6_Y/video.html

[@angushally4710]

I'm also confused, why not call an api on a list?

[@MilosEDI]

Because on a list you can only process 100 entries. After exceeding this level your workflow is likely to crash. Also this workflow type is recursive while „on a list“ runs simultaneously. Also „on a List“ is almost impossible to debug.
