FAQ
Q: What happens if a record with the same keys already exists?
A: Cosmos DB will return an error for duplicate keys. Use the Upsert Action if you want to insert or update in a single step.
Q: Can I insert multiple records at once?
A: No. The Insert Action handles a single record per execution. For batch operations, loop this action in your workflow.
Q: Is the insert operation transactional?
A: Yes, Cosmos DB ensures atomicity for single-record inserts.
