You don't need a loop for this. You can: - create a variable of type number, for example "collection_size", default value 0; - assignment element, using the variable "collection_size" on the left, operator "Equals Count" and the Get element name on the right; - use the variable name on the screen; Loop is not needed in this scenario and if you have a lot of records it will take time to go over each and every record :)
I really like your channel and have been an admin for 6 years. You should know that you can get a sum now with the assign element and you dont need to loop through all the records anymore!
How would you go about taking a certain action when the count hits x number in a specific timeframe (ie 3 cases created on an account in the last 180 days)?

That's so cool I didn't even realize! Thanks :D
I just saw this comment. How would you go about doing that?? That's awesome
NumberVariable EQUALS COUNT CollectionVariable. Done!

Using the Today () variable doesn't work on the new version of Flow.
