I didn't know there was a flowfest, I just registered. Thanks for the video

[@bethgolson7391]

Thank you for this video! it is exactly what I needed to improve the flow I'm working on!

[@Walters954]

So happy my video helped you!

It’s fun to watch and think “how would I do this?” And see how well it aligns with the final outcome. Good stuff, keep it coming :-)

First of all Thanks a lot Walter for this amazing tutorial, Your way of explaining the concept is very crisp and clear most importantly as you explain other side of the concepts like in this tutorial you explain how using loops in not a good idea. I implemented the flow along the way. In my case the number of employee got updated correctly but the number of location is not getting updated. Your help will be highly appreciated .

Great video, thanks !

First of all thanks for the tutorial. I have a question. What if we want to do this flow for every accounts that provide the conditions? Do we have to use Loop and how? It is easy to understand for one record but if the record number increases, it will be more complex than other..

[@fatihyldrm721]

I did it before you reply. I create a loop and do the same flow for every records. Thanks Walter.

[@Walters954]

Glad I could be of assistance

Can a flow like this work for thousands of accounts with thousands more contacts?

[@Walters954]

Yes, this will work for thousands of contacts. You may need to check the documentation for limits on collection filters but I haven't seen an issue. If you want to do this on multiple accounts as well I'd recommend doing this in a scheduled flow since there will be a get request inside of a loop.

I've been thinking doing some some video responses to these where I solve the challenges programmatically. That would allow you to also make the query truly performant in terms of selectivity if you have multiple millions of records. IDK if Flow "Get Records" is automatically selective, but I would expect it to try and leverage the query optimizer without telling you (?).
