Macros: Batch vs. Iterative

$

Hi Alteryx Pro's,

 

I would really appreciate being able to ask a few simple questions on macro's:

- The typical usage is that a standard workflow calls either a batch or iterative macro, correct?

- I have created a batch macro, that parses one item, it works correctly, and I will be calling it from the iterative macro. Is this feasible?

- The main difference between a batch macro and an iterative macro is that the batch macro performs work on one item, whereas the iterative macro loops until a condition is met, correct?

- Is it possible to setup an iterative macro that accepts a list of numeric id's as a parameter from the calling workflow? If so, would I still use a 'Macro Input' tool?

 

Thank you for your advice/pointers.
