hello @Ethan, thanks for your question. using NodeRED can indeed increase Tulip functionality by allowing you to run logic external to Tulip. there are some interesting examples in here: [March 2021 App Competition [Node-RED] - #2 by Alan.Madorin](https://community.tulip.co/t/march-2021-app-competition-node-red/1961/2) if you’d like to take a look at how users are using NodeRED. I do want to point out that in Release 205 (going out on 2021-04-11T23:00:00Z), we’ll be adding the ability to filter Table Queries with Arrays from apps: [Table Queries functionality "in" and "not in" - #2 by gio](https://community.tulip.co/t/table-queries-functionality-in-and-not-in/2346/2). am I correct in thinking that this will eliminate the need for you to loop?? > [@Ethan](#): > > Would writing the logic within a connector be the best way to go forward? depending on the exact situation, this could indeed be a solution. for example, this QR Code is generated within a SQL Connector: [Generating a QR Code or Barcode](https://community.tulip.co/t/generating-a-qr-code-or-barcode/1014). I’d also like to point out that users sometimes use Connectors with the Table API (connected to their own instance), more information can be found here: [How can I load unique field(table) values into dropdown list - #2 by gio](https://community.tulip.co/t/how-can-i-load-unique-field-table-values-into-dropdown-list/835/2). hope this helps, let us know if you have further questions!! --- _[View the full topic](https://community.tulip.co/t/trigger-limit-loop-workaround-options/2340)._
