Appian Community and Appian Academy are being upgraded. From July 24–August 3, the Appian Community will be in read-only mode. During this time, the site will be read-only and user registration will be disabled. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but a more secure, stable, and performant Community experience is coming soon!
The new Appian Community launches August 3, followed by Appian Academy on August 7. During the migration, Appian Community Edition, Appian Academy, Documentation, Certifications, Instructor-led Customer Training, Partner Sales Training & Accreditation, and Forum (for Appian Partners and Customers only) will remain available.

Old Answer: Fetch all document details once using a!forEach and store in local!allDocumentDetails.Access data using local!allDocumentDetails[fv!index] instead of calling the integration.New Answer: Only way to truly improve performance is to modify the integration to accept array of Ids.
/* Instead of N calls, make ONE call */ local!allDocumentDetails: rule!NW_GetDocumentDetailsBatch( docIds: index(local!documentDetails, "document_id", {}) )
Calling an integration in a foreach does not improve the code performance in any way. You will have to find a way to fetch the data for all documents in a single call.
I agree with you. I validated the approach and it showed slight improvement, but nothing major
