How to bundle images generated from Placid before passing it to BannerBear

Hi there gurus, i’m trying to built an in-house flow to automate bulk coupon entry generation and then use each coupon image generated from Placid into a multi-tile image format via BannerBear.

The issue i’m facing is, when each operation (AKA image) is generated by Placid, it’s passed on directly to Bannerbear. What i want is for Placid to generate all the images based on the data extracted from the Gsheet i have (basically complete all operations for #1, see screenshot attached) AND THEN only pass all the completed images into BannerBear as 1 operation with the bundled images.

Sorry im quite new to this, so would appreciate all the help i can get.

Aggregators

Every result (item/record) from search modules will output a bundle. This can result in multiple bundles, which then trigger multiple operations in future modules (one operation per bundle). To “combine” multiple bundles into a single variable, you’ll need to use an aggregator of some sort.

Aggregators are modules that accumulate multiple bundles into one single bundle. An example of a commonly-used aggregator module is the Array aggregator module. The next popular aggregator is the Text Aggregator which is very flexible and can apply to many use-cases like building of JSON, CSV, HTML.

There are other types of aggregator modules, click the below links to find out more:

So, all you need is one more aggregator module for the trigger module.

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.

Hi Sam, thank you for your help. I’ve updated the flow scenario with an Array Aggregator as suggested, but as you see from the screenshot, the aggregator only pulls 1 row from the trigger module instead of pulling all the rows (x6 in total) from the Gsheet.

Ideally, im looking at 1 row to be 1 bundle. So the final output should be 6 bundles.

Secondly, i want to bundle the 6 image outputs from Placid to be funnelled into 1 bundle before passing it to BannerBear for the software to merge all 6 single images into 1 multi-tile dynamic image using a set template.

thank in advance for the assistance!
