Loop over a date using these results as input for a SOAP connection

DADE

I have a workflow which downloads data from a SOAP connection.

Now I would like to loop over this workflow changing the dates by selecting a start, an end date and how many days need to be added in each iteration. I have already managed to create all the dates, but I don't know how to use these dates as input into my other workflow.

 

If anybody could help me link the 2 workflows it would be very appreciated.

Hi @DADE 

 

You can try something like this

The append tool appends the Concat_A and Concat_field2 records to each of the records in your date list.  The formula tool then replaces the "<StartDay>2019-06-01</StartDay>"(also EndDay) from your original with the corresponding generated date.

The Download tool will run each of these records in turn and union the returned results.  The sample tool just tries the first two for testing purposes.  

 

This should work, but I haven't been able to test it completely since the target is blocked from my location
