UiPath-ADAv1 Control Flow Practice Question
A developer is building a workflow that reads rows from a DataTable and, for each row, must decide whether to process the row or skip it based on a status column. The developer wants to use a For Each Row activity and control the loop from inside its body. Which TWO activities can be placed inside the For Each Row body to alter the normal iteration? (Choose two.)
⚠ Common exam trap
Watch out — candidates often confuse activities that stop the whole workflow, such as Terminate Workflow, with activities that only affect the current loop, such as Break and Continue.

Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Break
Break and Continue are the two loop-control activities that can be placed inside a For Each Row body to change iteration behavior. Break exits the loop entirely, while Continue skips the rest of the current iteration and moves to the next row. Terminate Workflow, Throw, and Delay do not provide this kind of iteration control and would either end the process, raise an error, or simply pause execution.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Break
Why this is correct
The Break activity immediately terminates the innermost loop in which it is placed. Inside a For Each Row body, placing Break causes the loop to stop processing further rows and execution continues with the activity that follows the loop. This is one of the two activities in the scenario that can alter normal iteration, satisfying the requirement to exit the loop early based on a condition.
- ✓
Continue
Why this is correct
The Continue activity skips the remaining activities in the current iteration and moves to the next iteration of the innermost loop. Inside a For Each Row body, this allows the developer to skip processing a row whose status indicates it should not be handled, while still processing subsequent rows. It is the second activity that alters normal iteration in this scenario.
- ✗
Throw
Why it's wrong here
The Throw activity raises an exception that must be handled by an enclosing Try Catch or it will fault the workflow. It does not skip to the next iteration or exit the loop cleanly; instead it diverts control to error handling. Because the scenario asks for activities that alter normal iteration inside the loop body, Throw is not the appropriate choice and would change the flow in an unintended way.
- ✗
Terminate Workflow
Why it's wrong here
The Terminate Workflow activity ends the entire automation process immediately, not just the current loop iteration. While it would stop the For Each Row from processing more rows, it also aborts all remaining activities in the workflow and any parent workflows. That is a much broader effect than altering iteration, so it does not fit the requirement of controlling the loop from inside its body.
- ✗
Delay
Why it's wrong here
The Delay activity pauses execution for a specified duration but does not change which rows are processed or when the loop ends. After the delay, the For Each Row continues with the same iteration and then proceeds normally. It is useful for throttling, but it does not satisfy the requirement of altering the loop's iteration behavior from inside the body.
