Batch Customer Data Item-by-Item Push Workflow
This workflow is primarily used to batch retrieve customer information from the customer data warehouse and send it to a specified interface one by one via HTTP POST requests. It supports automatic batch processing and has a built-in waiting mechanism to effectively avoid overwhelming the interface due to requests being sent too quickly. Users can manually trigger execution, and the operation is intuitive and straightforward, ensuring that data is synchronized safely, completely, and efficiently. It is suitable for scenarios such as customer data synchronization, data migration, and bulk notifications, enhancing the level of automation in data processing.
Workflow Name
Batch Customer Data Item-by-Item Push Workflow
Key Features and Highlights
This workflow enables batch retrieval of all customer information from the customer data warehouse and sends each customer record individually via HTTP POST requests to a specified endpoint. It supports automatic batch processing with a built-in wait mechanism to prevent overwhelming the target interface by sending requests too rapidly. The entire process can be manually triggered, offering an intuitive and straightforward operation.
Core Problem Addressed
When pushing large volumes of customer data to third-party service interfaces, sending all data at once can cause interface blocking or failures. This workflow implements batch sending and pacing control to ensure secure, complete, and efficient data synchronization.
Application Scenarios
- Synchronizing customer data to CRM or marketing systems
- Pushing user information to third-party APIs for further processing
- Processing large volumes of data item-by-item to avoid interface rate limiting or timeouts
- Data migration or bulk notification scenarios
Main Process Steps
- Manually trigger the workflow to start execution.
- Retrieve all customer data from the "Customer Datastore" node.
- Use the "SplitInBatches" node to process data in single-item batches.
- Send each customer record as a POST request to the specified endpoint (https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts) via the "HTTP Request" node.
- After each request, wait for 4 seconds using the "Wait" node to control the sending frequency.
- Proceed to the "Replace Me" node (placeholder with no actual operation) to complete the current batch processing.
- Loop through all customer data until all records have been sent.
Involved Systems or Services
- Custom Customer Data Warehouse (Customer Datastore)
- HTTP Interface Service (Example endpoint: https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts)
Target Users and Value
- Data engineers and automation operators who need to batch synchronize or push customer data to external systems
- Scenarios requiring control over request frequency to avoid interface overload caused by bulk operations
- Enterprises and teams aiming to implement complex batch data processing through simple visual workflows
This workflow is concise and efficient, helping users easily achieve secure, item-by-item batch data pushing, enhancing automation in data processing, and ensuring stable and reliable data synchronization between business systems.
