Definition and Usage
Creates an infinite loop that continues to execute until it is explicitly broken by a Break loop command or the process is stopped manually. This command is useful for creating continuous processes that need to run indefinitely, such as monitoring systems or background tasks.
Parameter Values
Input parameters
This action does not require any input parameters.
Variables produced
This command would produce a variable that stores the current loop iteration count, starting from 1 by default and incrementing by 1 each time the loop runs.
Using Variables in Conditions
You can use the loop index variable in conditions or other actions by referencing it with the variable syntax (e.g., {loopCount}). This is particularly useful when you need to:
Track how many times the loop has executed
Create conditional logic based on the number of iterations
Log or display the current iteration number
Notes
An infinite loop will continue running indefinitely and must be explicitly terminated using a Break loop command or by stopping the automation manually.
Always ensure you have a proper exit condition or break mechanism to prevent the automation from running indefinitely when not intended.
Consider implementing error handling to manage unexpected situations that might occur during loop execution.
The loop index variable can be useful for debugging purposes or for implementing logic that needs to be executed after a specific number of iterations.
