ForEach resets index to 0

Hi,
This is expected behavior. The Index is set to 0 when starting a For Each action.
I suggest trying to batch in another way.
Do not use the loop and just use the For Each.
In the for each use a "run if" action that looks at the For Each index variable and have it pause every 50 loops for example.

Hi Simon, thanks for replying.

I suspected that this was happening however I feel that this behaviour is incorrect. As I see it the ForEach should use the index variable in a read-only manner. I don't understand why it should be writing to or setting the index variable.

I'll work on an alternative method. Thank you also for the suggestion.

The Nintex workflow designer is kind of like a wysiwyg which hides all the programming code.

The code for a loop in most programming languages looks similar to:

for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
    Do Something
}

As this is the case the variable that keeps track of the loops/index position is always initialised at the start of the loop which means that this is the correct behavior.

Yep this is where the wysiwyg of Nintex becomes a challenge :)
