Set Key-Value 2

Permanently stores a Value against a Key, collated under a Group. The value associated with the key can then be queried by using Get Key-Value 2 or Get Key-Values 2 from any Workflow in the Site.

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 2 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 2 Node to determine the correlating order ID when the update is made to the accounting system

Key-Values are not shared between site environments, which means the value could only be retrieved from the environment where it has been set. Ensure the new group name will be less than 50 characters.
