Workflow Automation: Update Collected Items

Update Collected allows you to update items in Podio that have been collected by a previous action in the flow. This is useful if you are searching for duplicates or wanting to update items that are related but have yet to have a connection to another item.

Example:

Start the flow by selecting the Trigger from and add any Filters required.

Next, collect the referenced items. This can be done by using the Get Referenced Item(s), the Get Podio View or the Search for Item(s).

Add the Update Collected action.

Additional Options include:
