Loop operator in Workflow

[header-image] IdentityNow Workflows provides a loop operator that allows a workflow to process many items in a list of data in a quick and efficient manner. While the loop operator is a built-in component of Workflows, there is another way to achieve looping functionality using features that are currently supported in the product. In this blog, I will demonstrate how to implement recursion in Workflows to achieve looping behavior without the need for the loop operator. What is recursion? …

The workflow HTTP Request action currently does not support non-200 responses and instead breaks the workflow, see HTTP Response Fails Workflow Execution - IdentityNow (IDN) / IDN Discussion and Questions - SailPoint Developer Community Forum

There’s an idea open for this to be handled gracefully here: https://ideas.sailpoint.com/ideas/GOV-I-2204 which you can vote on to have it prioritised.
