Run multiple commands#

Use one of two methods to run multiple commands in one Execute Command node:

  • Enter each command on one line separated by &&. For example, you can combine the change directory (cd) command with the list (ls) command using &&.

    cd bin && ls

  • Enter each command on a separate line. For example, you can write the list (ls) command on a new line after the change directory (cd) command.
