Having a Create Data step in a loop with the new value for the item with its output mapping set to Change Value and a rule or other way of identifying the item that needs to be changed is a way to go about this.
- List enters a loop
- Rule checks list item
- If the list item is what you intend to update, branch out of the loop to a Create Data step
- Output of the Create Data step changes the value of the item

Hi, is there an updated version of this answer? I am currently trying to update a data structure with records from a CSV, the procedure suggested by James works but it is extremely slow. I am looking for a faster approach. Thanks.

Hello,
You can use the Import From CSV action by right clicking on your CSV Data structure. I have attached a screenshot here for reference

Hi Mike, thanks for the quick answer,
Importing the CSV file is fine, I do that by a "feed CSV row one by one" and parsing the row results with "assign CSV values", then I can either add the items to the end of a list and create the CSV file in the structure that I need it, but what I need to do is updating an already existing data structure with data. In python, for example, this would be a Merge operation by IDs. How do I update a data structure that has to join by IDs on decisions with performance in mind?
Thanks,
Edit: this is in Decisions 6
