Preventing Duplicate Operations and Emails in Workfront

Hi WF Community, How can we avoid performing the same operation twice and prevent sending duplicate emails to the user in our Workfront scenario?

Hi there,

there are number of ways to do this. But my first observation is that your scenario simply generates 2 bundles of data and this is not a flaw in itself.

1. Think of additional filtering on trigger module to only process e.g. latest result

2. setup a filter somewhere later in the scenario once you have enough data to evaluate if you want to process all bundles

3. build a data store for all resulting data and only process the latest data from it on set cadence

Depending on goals and capabilities this will be smaller or larger effort

Good luck

Not so sure with the filtering since this is my first 2 modules here and there is no filter setup in between them. You can also see that the second module generates 2 bundles, and I think that is the start of the double bundle process.

Hi @a_en 
Can you share what you see in the operations bubble on the first module? 

A Watch field may receive multiple bundles (but on that module it would show as one operation)
