StartLoopForeachFromParameter
Initializing and running a Foreach loop.
Parameters:
Loop name : String *
The name of the loop to be created.
Default value: Loop
Loop state parameter name : String *
The name of the parameter to store the current state of the loop, LoopStates.
Default value: LoopState
Loop counter value parameter name : String *
The name of the parameter to store the current value of the counter, LoopCounter.
Default value: LoopCounterValue
Parameter name : String *
The name of the parameter to get the list of elements with the separator.
Separator : String *
The separator between the values.

The flag if the list of values should be reversed.
Default value: false
SetLoopState
Implements Continue/Break for a loop.
Parameters:
Loop name : String *
The name of the loop whose state should be changed.
Loop State : LoopStates *
The new state of the loop: Continue/Break.
Conditions
Read about conditions.
LoopIsBroken
Checks if the loop has been interrupted.
Parameters:
Loop name : String *
The name of the loop whose state is checked.
LoopIsCompleted
Checks if the loop has been completed.
Parameters:
Loop name : String *
The name of the loop whose state is checked.
LoopIsCompletedOrBroken
Checks if the actual loop state is Complete or Break. Therefore, the loop is completed or broken.
Parameters:
Loop name : String *
The name of the loop whose state is checked.
LoopIsNotCompletedAndBroken
Checks if the actual loop state is Default or Continue. Allows you to determine whether another iteration will be performed.
Parameters:
Loop name : String *
The name of the loop whose state is checked.
LoopIsDefault
Checks if the actual loop state is Default.
Parameters:
Loop name : String *
The name of the loop whose state is checked.
LoopIsNotDefault
Checks if the actual loop state is Complete, Continue, or Break. Therefore, the loop has been completed, or continued, or broken.
Parameters:
Loop name : String *
The name of the loop whose state is checked.
Elements
DateTimeFormat
- Format: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.fff
- Minimum value: 0001-01-01 00:00:00.000
For work with DateTime, you can use plugins, for example:
using OptimaJet.Workflow.Core.Plugins;
// For cast DateTime to string
string dateTimeString = DateTime.Now.ToLongStringDateTime();
// For cast string to DateTime
DateTime = dateTimeString.ToLongDateTime();
DateTimeStepFormat
The following values can be set as a step:
- integer followed by y, year or years, its value is interpreted as years.
- integer followed by mm, month or months, its value is interpreted as months (the number of days determined by the calendar);
- integer followed by d, day or days, its value is interpreted as days (24 hours);
- integer followed by h, hour or hours, its value is interpreted as hours;
- integer followed by m, minute or minutes, its value is interpreted as minutes;
- integer followed by s, second or seconds, its value is interpreted as seconds;
- integer followed by ms, millisecond or milliseconds, its value is interpreted as milliseconds;
The measurement units may be combined, for example, "1y 3mm 2d 5h 24m 15s 50 ms", "2days 5hours", etc.
