Fetch Docs only works in sequence?

Hi,

I noticed that Fetch Docs blocks work fine when run in sequence, but fail when set to run in parallel. Is there any way to make them work in parallel to speed things up?

Thanks!

Hi @ASOS08,

If you’ve connected your account and specified the Google Docs, the blocks can run in parallel. But if the Account is set to Dynamic, they’ll run one after the other.

Hi Alex, my question is if it possible to chose de documents in parallel in the runtime and not the backend.

Just a quick aside — is it possible to do this via APIs? And instead of using fetch documents, could we set up a folder where files are stored and then select multiple of them dynamically at runtime?

Thanks!

Hi @ASOS08,

It’s not currently possible to select multiple Docs at once.

As for doing this via API, it should technically be possible, though it’ll likely be more complex than a standard API call. I’d recommend reviewing Google’s API documentation before getting started.
