I want to start a process for each word in a list, I have looked into Multi-Instance, but that is something I don’t want, I don’t want to make instances, I want to make completely separate processes for each word in the list.
Multi-Instance is actually the right way to go.
For-Do looping pretty much directly translates to Sequential Multi-Instance.
- Generate your array of values
- Do X for the current item in the array
- If there’s another item, move to the next item and go to Step 2.
The “Gotcha” part that you might have missed is that you can make a “Call Activity” a multi-instance as well. This runs a completely distinct (and re-usable) process for each item in your collection. It will have a reference in it to indicate that it was called by your initial process (mostly so the calling process knows when the called process is completed)
Basically, in Step 2 of the above, it would be similar to replacing "Do X with “Run this other program for the values in this point of the list”
