Do While

Overview

The Do While task is a control flow task that repeatedly executes a set of tasks until a specified condition is no longer met. It provides loop-like behavior inside a workflow, allowing workflows to handle iterations dynamically.

Note: Nesting of a DO_WHILE task within another DO_WHILE task is not supported.
