Definition

Number which specifies how many parallel branches are created in the flow definition.

In each parallel branch, you can define as many tasks as you require. All parallel branches join together, but the task that comes after this is only processed when all the tasks in all of the branches are completed.

Once this has happened, you cannot make any more changes to the number of parallel branches in this field. However, you can still delete a branch by deleting all the tasks that it contains. It is no longer possible to add a branch.
