Map Node
Map Nodes
Map Nodes allow you to easily run the same Subworkflow multiple times in a row or in parallel, with up to 96 concurrent executions.
Map Nodes take a JSON array as an input and run the same Subworkflow for each item in the array. The Subworkflow is provided with three input variables on each iteration: item
(the value in the current iteration of the array), items
(the entire array), and index
(the position of the current iteration, as a number).
The output of every Subworkflow is then combined into a single value as the output of the Map Node, with the special Vellum type ARRAY
(not JSON).
Tip: Map Node Inputs
If you don’t see your input as an option when setting the items
input of the Map Node — make sure that the Node you’re using as an input has its output type as JSON
and not ARRAY
. ARRAY
types are special Vellum types and won’t be recognized as inputs to Map Nodes.
