Adding a Label and Jump To component to automations
Use Label and Jump To (label) items to connect one set of automation steps to a different set.
Labels are similar to bookmarks in Word. You can flag an automation block as a Label and then jump to that block when necessary. For example, if you need to connect a variable to a method, instead of a long execution line or data path, you can quickly connect them with a Label-Jump To pair.
Once the steps in the Jump To subautomation complete, the automation resumes at the point where the Jump To (link) was executed.
