Do While

This activity executes the activity contained in its body at least once, until the specified condition evaluates to false.

Activity Parameters

The Do While activity has only one parameter and it can be provided by manually inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:

...

ForEach

This activity executes the activities in its body for each element found in a collection/array.

Activity Parameters

The ForEach activity properties can be provided via manually inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:

Parameters:

...

...

Example:

This basic example will use the Iterator to go through the collection of IPs (IPv4Collection defined above) and test the connection for each one using a PowerShell script activity contained in the ForEach body.

...

If

This activity runs an activity/sequence of activities if a condition is true, and can optionally run activities if the condition is false.

Activity Parameters

The If activity properties can be provided via manually inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:

...

This basic example will iterate a previously defined collection of IPv4 addresses, and when a specific one is found (validated via an If activity), test its connection. 

The IPv4Collection variable definition:

...

This activity that executes all child activities simultaneously and asynchronously. It completes when all its child activities are completed or when the completion condition is met.

Activity Parameters

The Parallel activity properties can be provided via manually inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:

...

This activity iterates a collection of elements of the same type and executes all child activities simultaneously and asynchronously per each element. It completes when all its child activities are completed or when the completion condition is met.

Activity Parameters

The Parallel ForEach With Body Factory activity properties can be provided via manually inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:

...

• CompletionCondition (text box editor type) (type: boolean): the optional condition that decides when the parallel activity is completed. If left blank, the activity is marked as completed when all its branches are completed.
• TypeArgument (ComboBox type): the type of the elements in the collection/array that the activity will iterate.
• Values (text box editor type) (type: dependant on TypeArgument): the collection/array that the activity will iterate. On each iteration, the body of the ParallelForEachWithBodyFactory activity will be executed.

...

Sequence

This activity runs a set of child activities based on a single defined ordering. 

Activity Parameters

The Sequence activity has no paramaters except the its DisplayName which can be customized for easier usability.

Switch

This activity selects one choice from a number of activities to execute, based on the value of a given expression.

Activity Parameters

The Switch activity has only one parameter and it can be provided by manually inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:

...

switchOutput is a string OUT parameter which can be further used in various activities or displayed in Flowster Studio Portal. 

While

This activity repeatedly executes a contained activity while a condition evaluates to true. The difference between While and Do While is that the Do While activity first executes the activities and then evaluates the condition, whereas While first evaluates the condition and only runs the child activities if the result is true.

Activity Parameters

The Do While activity has only one parameter and it can be provided by manually inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:

...
