Item creation sub task
The Item Creation control is a type of sub-task. A sub-task is a control that has its own element execution flow, similar to an app within the app, where the execution starts and ends within the same user step. To implement it, add an item creation control to a user step and then configure the a sub-task element.
The item creation sub-task control creates a new item each time the sub-task is executed.
Note - The output of the sub-task is available in the steps AFTER the user step where the sub-task is located.
