integerYes—≥ 1—

booleanNo———

Example configuration

Every value below is the contract’s own example or default — nothing invented.

Output

One shape.

Notes

  • Iterable answers 200 even when some records fail: check 'fail_count' and 'failed_updates', not just the absence of an error.

See Subscribe To List run in a workflow.

In a technical demo we add the Iterable connection, drop the node on the canvas and let Workflow Health pre-flight it before the first real run.
