Cache Write Flow Step
Cache Write Flow Step

The Cache Write flow step enables a filtered update to the cache for some specific connectors and data objects, especially within Procore and ProjectSight.
The Cache Write flow step enables a filtered update to the cache for some specific connectors and data objects, especially within Procore and ProjectSight.
This flow step is a legacy feature of some specific connectors and data objects, and should only be used in specific circumstances. Otherwise, it is best practice to schedule a cache write service to update your cache. For a more general cache write explanation and standard use, see Key Concepts and Services.
One key scenario where it is advantageous to use the Cache Write flow step is if a workspace is only interested in specific Projects or Vendors data objects, and those data objects have filters enabled for an in-flow cache write.
Because of its limited applications, only certain data objects support this step. Below is a list of compatible data objects used by public connectors.

Step Inputs
Step Inputs
In the Edit Step menu, you can add details about the step configuration as needed for your flow.
Connector: Choose the connector whose data object you want to write to the cache.
Data Object: Choose the data object you want to write to the cache.
Use existing filters: Enable this setting to apply any filter steps from earlier in the flow. If disabled, you can enter an expression for the filter in the same way as in other flow steps. For example, return.flow.trigger.data.id;.
Note: If no filters are available for a particular data object, this flow step will trigger a full cache write.
Step Outputs
Step Outputs
When the Cache Write flow step runs, it updates your cache within App Xchange with the latest data from the defined data object.
