Bubble to slow for event in Javascript loop (Toolbox plugin). Ideas?

[nicola.kegel]

Hi Bubblers,

I am stuck and it would be awesome if you could help me!

I built a little JavaScript that takes a list of ExerciseGroups and creates a list of User’s Exercises for each ExerciseGroup:
The Javascript part loops over each ExerciseGroup:

…and when the Event of bubble_fn_exerciseGroup() is triggered, a new User’s Exercise is created in Bubble and attached to the User’s Exercises list of the Current User:

As long as the debugger was on, this worked just fine and produced a beautiful list of different User’s Exercises in my DB :

The moment I turned the debugger off, everything went too fast it seems and instead of 11 different User’s Exercises I get 11 identical ones :

This happens despite the fact that the JavaScript seems to loop over the correct ExerciseGroups:

So I assume Bubble is not fast enough to get the new value from my JavascripttoBubble element.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks so much for the help!
Nicola

I should have said:
I built a little JavaScript that takes a list of ExerciseGroups and creates a User’s Exercise for each ExerciseGroup. It’s a 1:1 relationship. Sorry, somehow I cannot change the text.

Hi @nicola.kegel,

I’m not really familiar with the toolbox list functionality, but I did notice that the Create User’s Exercise workflow does assign “first item” to “Exercise”.

You may wanna check the list processor out to do this without writing any Javascript:

[New Plugin] Bdk Utilities

List Processor List Processor brings a much awaited functionality. Currently if you want to run a workflow on a bunch of things, you can run api workflow on a list. But that also means you don’t know when its done, and you have to store and retrieve value from the database making it complex and slow. List processor allows you to do this right on the page. Unlike api workflows, it can also trigger another workflow that you define once its done. For Example applications, think of the instances …

Thank you so much Gaurav for building the Bdk Utilities plugin. It’s a game changer for my app! Why didn’t I find this in December? You would have saved me weeks!

Also thanks for the very structured and easy to understand documentation.

Haha thanks @nicola.kegel!
Its true I don’t end up marketing any of this stuff. But awesome bubblers like you who are active on the forum have been very kind in spreading awareness!
