Multi thread ??

[djljzenno]

Hello!

I am not sure how to make multi threads kick in.

One project example...

Collecting Pandora Playlists

Go to one station, collect song, artist meanwhile... going to another station and doing the same. Doing this over 5 different threads on 5 different stations.

I put maximum threads of 5 but it doesn't do anything different.

Thanks.. LJ

do anything different.

And what's in your project is made for threads to act different?
What exactly do you mean?

I would like it to run 5 instances at once. Each running a different station. How would I go about doing that?

Then you should have a list with different URLs or something like this in order for each thread to be navigated to different URL.

I guess I am not grasping how it even goes into multithread. Could you show me a sample project of how it triggers?

Thanks.. Lyle

There's no difference between multithreading or signle thread. All actions are the same.
If your template has exact all steps with exact the same data used on every step, then all threads will do 100% the same.

The main differens for multithreading is the actions which have different data.
For example you take lines from list with URLs and take them with deleting and navigate to them.
In this case all threads will take and use different lines.

Ok.. now I know what I was doing wrong. I was only clicking +1 task. You need at least one per thread I guess.
