# ‎ Loop

The **Loop** block creates an explicit loop in your flow, triggering its connected logic a defined number of times. It counts from a **Minimum** value to a **Maximum** value, incrementing by a configurable **Step**. On each iteration, the current counter is available as **Current value**, and when the loop is finished, the **Completed** connector indicates that no further iterations will run.

Fully expanded, the **Loop** block shows the following properties:

**Note:** The screenshot on this page uses the **Elegance Design**, introduced in **2025.3**. If you are using an earlier version, your layout may look different.

## Quick-start

1. Drag **Loop** onto the canvas.
2. Connect the block where you need repeated logic and set the basic parameters **Minimum**, **Maximum**, and **Step** to define how many times the loop should run.
3. Run the flow when it's ready; use **Current value** inside the looped sequence and **Completed** to continue when all iterations are done.

## Building block parameters

Parameters  
* **Block header:** Shows the current name of the **Loop** block. You can rename it at any time by double-clicking the header and typing a new title. The green input connector starts the loop when the flow reaches this block, and the green output connector triggers on every iteration.

* **Minimum:** Sets the inclusive starting value for the loop counter. For example, in a loop from 1 to 10, the **Minimum** value is `1`.

* **Maximum:** Sets the inclusive end value for the loop counter. For example, in a loop from 1 to 10, the **Maximum** value is `10`.

* **Current value:** Holds the current value of the loop counter for the active iteration. In a loop from 1 to 10 with **Step** = 1, on the third iteration **Current value** is `3`.

When the loop finishes, **Current value** will be the last value used, typically the **Maximum**.

* **Completed:** Green output connector that triggers once after the loop has finished all iterations. It activates when the loop reaches the **Maximum** value, or the closest possible value without exceeding it when the **Step** does not divide the range evenly.

* **Step:** Defines how much **Current value** increases on each iteration. For example, in a loop from 1 to 10:

* With **Step** = 1, the loop runs 10 times (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10).
  * With **Step** = 4, the loop runs 3 times (1, 5, 9), because the next value (13) would exceed the **Maximum**.
