Hi 

 

I was append new record to an existing record, so I tried this

 

1. Retrieve the old Cases ID, 

2. Initialize variable with the new Case Number

3. Apply to Each -> Append Original Cases to the array

4. Update the client record with the new list of Case Number

 

But I have been running for minutes, and 2 retries have occurred. Not sure anything I did wrong.
