I often have workflows that split at some point and then need to “merge” again - but without data from both lines … i just want to use the split out data return in a single flow afterwards - like you would when you have a sub-workflow trigger at that point - without making a subworkflow.
if i connect both nodes to the subsequent one, then i have the issue, that those inputs are not handled as one. so accessiond $json.data is not simply taking the input of the one input that gets data …
How can i do this? as i am maybe simply missing the correct term.
GPT told me to use a merge - but that is waiting for two inputs - i simply want one of the paths to execute … like a reverse switch.
What is the error message (if any)?
Please share your workflow
(Select the nodes on your canvas and use the keyboard shortcuts CMD+C/CTRL+C and CMD+V/CTRL+V to copy and paste the workflow.)
Yes, it could. In step by step the two merging branches will not run simultaneously. Generally speaking the top branch is executed first and the the lower branches follow in that order. This also will result (from your screenshot) in Switch node running (iterating) more than once (twice in your case) if both incoming branches have data.
