This Example Lab demonstrates how to configure and use a Collection Sort Step, which can be found under All Steps [ Catalog] > Data > List in the Flow Designer.


Explanation

In this example, we use a Collection Sort Step to sort a List of Strings alphabetically. The step works by taking in a List of Items and, on the first run, will use Item0 and Item1 to compare them in the Sort Flow. The Flow then runs these two items through the sorting logic configured and, based on the logic, will sort and configure the order of these two items. Upon finishing, it will run again, but this time, it will compare Item1 and Item2 and, following the same logic, will sort and order these into the list.
