        <Tab title="How It Works">
          <Steps>
            <Step title="Design Parallel Paths">
              Add a Start Parallel node and create multiple sequences from it. Each sequence represents an independent execution path
            </Step>

            <Step title="Configure Branch Logic">
              Add workflow nodes to each parallel branch, such as API calls, transformations, or database operations
            </Step>

            <Step title="Merge Paths">
              Close parallel branches with an End Parallel node. This node waits for all branches to complete before continuing
            </Step>

            <Step title="Runtime Execution">
              All branches execute concurrently at runtime. The End Parallel node completes when the slowest branch finishes
            </Step>
          </Steps>
        </Tab>

        <Tab title="Use Cases">
          <CardGroup cols={2}>
            <Card title="Multiple API Calls" icon="cloud">

        <Tab title="Runtime Behavior">
          <Accordion title="Path Timing">
            * **Path Time**: Sum of all node execution times within that branch
            * **End Parallel Time**: Node processing time + maximum time across all parallel paths
            * **Example**: If Branch A takes 2s and Branch B takes 5s, the End Parallel node completes after 5s (plus its own processing time)

          <Accordion title="Console Logging">
            * **Start Parallel Node**: Displays Input tab showing data split across branches
            * **End Parallel Node**: Displays Output tab showing merged results from all branches
            * **Path Grouping**: Nodes within each parallel path are grouped for easy monitoring
          </Accordion>

          <Accordion title="Error Handling">
            * If any branch fails, the workflow handles it according to standard error handling rules
            * End Parallel node waits for all non-failed branches before continuing
            * Runtime validation ensures parallel branches are configured correctly
          </Accordion>
        </Tab>

        <Tab title="Limitations">
          <Warning>
            **First Iteration Constraints**: This is the initial implementation of parallel branches with the following considerations:
          </Warning>

          * **Array Processing**: Arrays are not merged across parallel branches. When multiple branches modify the same array path, the last branch to complete determines the final array value. You cannot process individual objects from the same array in different parallel branches (for example, first element in branch 1, second element in branch 2). To preserve data from all branches, save to different keys and merge manually using a script before the end node
          * **Branch Closure**: All start parallel branches must be closed with end parallel nodes. Nodes following a start parallel node must merge into the same end parallel node, except for nodes that terminate with end workflow nodes

          <Info>
            Based on user feedback and raised exceptions during runtime execution, additional configuration constraints and validations are planned for future releases.

              In Integration Designer, open a REST System and navigate to a GET endpoint. Enable caching and select your TTL policy (Expires After or Expires At)
            </Step>

            <Step title="First Request">
              When the endpoint is called for the first time, the response is fetched from the external API and stored in cache with the configured TTL
            </Step>

            <Step title="Subsequent Requests">
              If the cache is still valid (within TTL), subsequent requests return the cached response immediately without calling the external API
            </Step>

            <Step title="Cache Expiration">
              Once TTL expires, the next request fetches fresh data from the external API and updates the cache
            </Step>

            <Step title="Cache Management">
              Use the "Clear Cache" action to manually invalidate cached responses when needed (e.g., after data updates)

    ### **Workflow partitioning & archiving**

      <Tabs>
        <Tab title="Overview">
          FlowX.AI 5.2.0 introduces workflow instance partitioning and archiving for Integration Designer. This feature enables efficient management of workflow data by organizing instances into time-based partitions and automatically archiving old data to maintain optimal database performance in large-scale deployments.

          <Info>
            Workflow partitioning is particularly beneficial for high-volume Integration Designer workflows where instances accumulate over time, helping to maintain query performance and manage storage efficiently.

              * Options: Any positive integer
              * Example: With `MONTH` interval and `3` retention intervals, partitions older than 3 months are archived

            * **`FLOWX_DATA_PARTITIONING_ARCHIVING_CRONEXPRESSION`**: Schedule for archiving operations

        <Tab title="Best Practices">
          <Warning>
            **Planning and Testing Required**: Enable partitioning and archiving only after careful planning and testing. Once enabled:

            * Ensure sufficient database storage for partition management operations
            * Start with archiving disabled to verify partitioning works correctly
            * Test thoroughly in non-production environments before enabling in production
            * Monitor database performance during initial archiving operations
            * Choose partition intervals based on your workflow volume and retention requirements
          </Warning>

          **Recommended Approach**:

          1. Enable partitioning first without archiving
          2. Monitor partition creation and database performance
          3. After verifying stable operation, enable archiving
          4. Schedule archiving during low-traffic periods (e.g., overnight)
          5. Start with longer retention periods and adjust based on requirements

            <Warning>
              **\*\*Manual Configuration Required**: These 51 FlowX substitution tags must be configured manually in CMS for each language. They control custom Task Management UI elements outside of the data table.

          <Steps>
            <Step title="Set Container App Language">
              Configure your container application language - FlowX.AI automatically handles table grid localization (300+ keys for filters, menus, pagination, data types) based on this setting
            </Step>

            <Step title="Configure FlowX Substitution Tags in CMS">
              Add translations for all 51 FlowX substitution tags (sys\_tm\_\*) in CMS for each supported language. These control custom Task Management UI elements (task actions, bulk operations, history events, comments)
            </Step>

            <Step title="Configure Custom Column Names (Optional)">
              If you need custom columns beyond the defaults, use substitution tags for column display names in your Task Management configuration
            </Step>

            <Step title="Test Localization">
              Verify complete localization:

              * **Table grid elements** (automatic): filters, sorting, pagination, menus should display in container app language
              * **FlowX custom elements** (CMS): task actions, bulk operations, history events, comments should use your CMS translations
            </Step>
          </Steps>

          <Info>
            **Simple Setup**: Configure only the 51 FlowX substitution tags in CMS. Table grid localization (300+ keys) is handled automatically by the platform.
