Parallel Paths step

When you add a Parallel Paths step, you set some properties.

You can configure the following Parallel Paths step properties:

Name: The name of the Parallel Paths step. The name can contain only alphanumeric characters, underscores (_), spaces, and Unicode characters. The name can't contain curly brackets {}.
Parallel Paths: The paths that you want the taskflow to run in parallel.

to add a new branch.

You can add multiple steps to each branch. To add steps to a branch, drag and drop a step from the pallette on the left.

You can run the same mapping task in multiple branches of the Parallel Paths step if the mapping task is configured to run simultaneously.

When you use the Jump step in conjunction with the Parallel Path step, you can only jump to another step on the same Parallel Path branch.

Keep in mind the following restrictions when you use the Jump step and the Parallel Path step together:

If you are in a Parallel Path step, you cannot jump to a step on another branch of the same Parallel Path step.
If you are in a Parallel Path step, you cannot jump to any step outside the Parallel Path step.
If you are outside a Parallel Path step, you cannot jump to any step inside the Parallel Path step.
