We are facing an issue where record load is happening before we get data back from an api call. This is an intermittent issue. We cannot figure out the root cause. We issue http gets then do a put and we are expecting a return set and then a new page should display. The put works, the data is updated in the remote database but our page never refreshes. If we hit the browser refresh button the page looks find and the data we expect back is displayed. We believe the record load happens before the process completes. Any thoughts on resolving the issue? We are using APPIAN 7.8

@christine Good point, I'd forgotten that aspect. I think the "official" terms are foreground and background; chained nodes execute in the "foreground" whilst non-chained nodes are executed as-and-when resource is available - in the "background". That, coupled with the fact that the user doesn't get navigated away from the task until the chaining ends, explains the behaviour Marc is seeing.
