Loop Over Items (Split in Batches)

Loop Over Items (Split in Batches) is an official n8n core node that passes items through a workflow in configurable batches. It is not a standalone external service. Businesses use it to repeat processing steps across customer records, documents, or operational datasets, organizing larger workloads into smaller groups within a defined execution flow.

X Mind Solutions incorporates this node into automations where AI agents read records, assess their content, and act through connected systems. Each batch can pass through classification, summarization, or update steps. We configure loop continuation and completion paths around the business process, adding approval steps, delays, and error handling where the workflow requires them.

Authorization is handled through the connections to source and destination systems rather than through this node itself. X Mind Solutions defines field mappings, limits the data passed to agents, and configures execution monitoring for batch progress and failures. Access follows task requirements, while retry handling includes appropriate safeguards against repeating actions that have already completed.
