Remarks
Key-Value pairs provide a fast technique for permanently creating associations between equivalent records in a source and a target app or service.
Example scenario:
- A workflow retrieves an order placed in an e-commerce platform (order 232 )
- The order is integrated into an accounting system. On completion, the accounting system generates it's own order number ORD00412
- Use the Set Key-Value Node to associate Key 232 with Value ORD00412
- If a change is made to the order in the e-commerce platform and that change needs to be integrated into the accounting system, use the Get Key-Value Node to determine the correlating order ID when the update is made to the accounting system
