28. Execution Groups

Execution Groups

An execution group is an operation that runs multiple operations simultaneously. Rather than having multiple

operations running separately, they can be grouped together underneath one single parent operation.

Create A Working Execution Group

To create an execution group, you first create a new or edit an existing operation. Change the Operation

Type under Basic settings to Execution Group and create/update the operation.

This operation will be the parent operation; you must now create its child operations. To do so, create or edit

another operation and, underneath the Advanced settings header, change the Parent Operation to the operation

created in the previous step.

If you were to run the application, you would find the parent operation of the execution group (the first operation

made in this tutorial) in the menu. If you open the parent operation, you would see then see the child operation.

Let us make a second child operation in order to truly demonstrate the ability of Execution Groups. Create another

child operation following the steps above and set its Parent Operation to the same as before. Now, run the

application again and open the Execution Group.
