How to use looping (recursive) workflows in Bubble.io

Recursive, or looping, backend workflows is a powerful technique in Bubble which mimics the concept of a loop in traditional computer programming. You can use them to create, update, or delete large amounts of data in your database while maintaining control over the process. In this video I do a rather long-winded analogy about Christmas cards before showing you how to use recursive workflows to create a number of things in the database, and then subsequently update them. 00:00 Introduction and a real-life analogy 01:50 Explaining the concept with an animated diagram 05:05 Creating a list of things 12:15 Updating a list of things 19:40 Examples of when I use recursive workflows 21:20 Adding a notification when the workflow has finished 23:50 How to cancel a recursive workflow if you accidentally make an infinite loop Find me on Twitter:   / nocodelife   To hear more no-code stories check out my website: https://nocodelife.com Serious about learning Bubble?
