Question

I cannot understand the use case for results can you make an example Also can they be used for subflows other than tasks How they integrate with the concept of retries

Emil Christensen · Answer

We can discuss more when we regroup but the most important use case for results is caching Say you re making 100 000 API calls you ll want to use results via caching to store those so that you don t have to redo any requests in case of failure or changes to your code

Emil Christensen · Answer

Results are only for tasks not flows or subflows They don t really interact with retries you can use either feature independently

Edward at Evo · Answer

So results are a form of caching in some way what s the difference between them And sure let s discuss when we regroup if my qiuestion is not too basic XD

Emil Christensen · Answer

Not at all It s a great question Think of results as one half of caching In order to get caching we need the `result` and a `key`
