Workflows - Limitations | Zoho Creator Help

Limitations:​ Workflows

Workflow execution  

  • The action calls limit for an app in an account is 250 requests per minute. This is a collective of multiple users accessing same action request.

  • The action calls limit for a portal in an account is 250 requests per minute. This is a collective of multiple users accessing same action request.

  • The action calls limit for a portal in an account is 250 requests per minute. This is collective of multiple users accessing same action request.

  • In blueprints, the maximum number of statements that can be executed in one change stage function and execute transition function is 50.

    • Note: A statement refers to one task as a whole. For example, the entire "if" condition will be considered as a single statement

  • In deluge scripts, the maximum number of statements that can be executed in one function is approximately 5000 to 50000, depending on your pricing plan.

 

 Batch Workflow 

  • Batch workflow is currently not supported for integrations forms.

  • Users can create up to five variables within a batch workflow.

  • Only one batch workflow can be executed concurrently for an account (based on creation date). This means that additional batch workflows will be queued for execution, thereby ensuring fair resource allocation and preventing overload on system resources. 

Deluge limitations

  • The "old" keyword is not supported in batch workflows.

  • CRUD actions like add, update, and delete records are restricted to 10 records per batch workflow execution.

  • You cannot fetch more than 200 records in a single workflow. You can do so in phases as different batches.

  • Info message cannot exceed 50KB. Otherwise, the message will be truncated.

  • You can send up to a maximum of three email notifications with attachments.

  • The maximum size of file attachments(audio, video, and image) allowed is 15 MB. If the attachments exceed this limit, the emails will be delivered without them.

  • If you want to get the file content of the specified file or create a file object using the required content, the respective file size should be less than 2 MB.

  • The following Deluge operations are not supported in batch workflows.

Note: Batch workflows can be used to overcome the Deluge script limitation of executing only 5000 statements per function. 

Send Mail Task         

  • '\n' in the message content of 'plain text mail' will be rendered as a newline character.

  • Attaching reports using send mail task is not applicable for published forms.

  • You can attach up to 15 MB of data in send mail tasks. Learn More

Email Notification          

To avoid the risk of spam email messages, if the 'From' address is not a zoho.adminuserid or zoho.loginuserid, the 'To' address is restricted to zoho.adminuserid only, and the sendmail task cannot include any CC or BCC addresses. To address this limitation, Zoho Creator offers a solution by permitting the addition of verified email addresses. These verified email addresses can then be utilized as either the 'From' or 'To' email address, providing a workaround for the specified limitations.

Note: As per Gmail's new policy, sender email addresses containing gmail should be  domain verified before use.

Blueprints 

  • Number of stages and transitions that can be created is 100 per blueprint

  • Number of common transitions possible in a blueprint is 5

  • Number of parallel transitions possible in a blueprint is 5

  • Number of branches in a parallel transition is 5

  • Number of transition per parallel is 5

  • Number of parallel transition between stages per direction is 1

  • Number of outgoing parallel transitions per stage is 2
