how to do in iterator i++;

[nizam]

hi there

how can i do something equivalent to i=i+1; for each iterator loop?
if want to use javascript, wondering how to use it with pabbly variable.

my use case, i want to add delay after each 5 loop/iteration.

if (count ==5)
reset loop,
delay(1 min)
else
increase count+1;

Hello @nizam,

There isn’t any native feature in Pabbly to achieve this functionality directly. However, if you want to process only up to 5 iterations (for example, 5 elements of an array), you can structure it as follows:

1. Add the Iterator with the array object.
2. After that, add a Counter step which increments by 1 on each run.
3. Then, add a Filter that checks whether the counter is less than or equal to 5.
   • If the condition is met, the workflow will proceed further.
   • If not, the filter will fail and the workflow will stop processing further.

This way, you can control how many iterations are processed.

It’s not possible to reset the loop of an Iterator. The use case you are describing is currently not supported.

sorry, not resetting the iterator loop, only the counter
