Using persistent variable(s) in workflows, or keeping status in wf

Hello,

I want to export data (timeseries).

So I can schedule a workflow to make this happen.

Making this a little trustworthy I would really like to know what the last data is I send, in other words, I do not want duplicates or missing data.

In sport terms, is it possible to create a scheduled workflow that functions like a "relay"?

I'd recommend using document api in the workflow from JavaScript to store and read persistent data across executions.

Hello Julius,

Thanks for your reply (on a Saturday),

While reading your answer, my head says, of coarse stupid me!

Thanks for correcting me (-;
