Track data after submitting http request?

Describe the problem/error/question

i have a workflow that takes a project (with an id) and url, makes an http request, and returns the response of that http request.

i’d like to merge the request back in with the original data, but the http response doesn’t include the project or id that is present in my incoming dataset.

is there some way i can track which http response belongs with which project/id? i was assuming i could assign an index for order and re-merge that way, but if a project doesn’t return a response, the order will be thrown off by 1 and the merge won’t be accurate.

What is the error message (if any)?
