Run tool with data Passthrough

$

Hello everyone. I am struggling with the ability to use a run command for a windows run command while still passing data through a given flow through the Run command.

 

 

For example: If the first step is simply a read in from an Excel file, and you wanted to run a simple run command to wait for 5 seconds, and then have all of the data from the file pass through into a next flow, how would this be accomplished?

 

It seems like the run command has to have an input and output flow when you want to pass records through it... What is the best way to do this? It seems incorrectly to simply set up "dummy files" for the run command to point too and pull from, but is that the best way to do it?

 

Attached is a very simple flow where I would like the output read to simply pull the 3 records from the file after waiting for 5 seconds. What kind of input / output file should I set up to allow this to work, given that this workflow needs to be moved to the gallery at some future point in time :-)

 

 

Thank you very much for your help!
