# Flow Transformation

These components allow you to filter, split, combine, and summarize data, ensuring the right data is processed at the right time.

Below are the key transformation components:

<table data-view="cards"><thead><tr><th></th><th></th><th data-hidden data-card-target data-type="content-ref"></th><th data-hidden data-card-cover data-type="image">Cover image</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Filter</strong></td><td>Filter data based on a condition to keep only the required records.</td><td><a href="/pages/duQp2nPxMPrOPdt65eUq">/pages/duQp2nPxMPrOPdt65eUq</a></td><td><a href="/files/5qmyhybYnpYYCnHMnTQt">/files/5qmyhybYnpYYCnHMnTQt</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Limit</strong></td><td>Restrict the number of records processed or passed forward in the flow.</td><td><a href="/pages/7OEmuxT6YwQcs3fL7Lrb">/pages/7OEmuxT6YwQcs3fL7Lrb</a></td><td><a href="/files/wYI0DNbH10RyJgGHCKrG">/files/wYI0DNbH10RyJgGHCKrG</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Split</strong></td><td>Split data into multiple branches based on a defined condition.</td><td><a href="/pages/nX6wZsLSfRg9OrnNtrNX">/pages/nX6wZsLSfRg9OrnNtrNX</a></td><td><a href="/files/3e5PpZjVjoxKKyzXpboC">/files/3e5PpZjVjoxKKyzXpboC</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Aggregate</strong></td><td>Compute summarized or aggregated values (e.g., totals, counts) from data.</td><td><a href="/pages/jUALCDkMx3V1nwi96GMx">/pages/jUALCDkMx3V1nwi96GMx</a></td><td><a href="/files/kfgOna8Tj7gSZrhcVHDZ">/files/kfgOna8Tj7gSZrhcVHDZ</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Merge</strong></td><td>Combine data from multiple branches back into a single output path.</td><td><a href="/pages/3hUDkpNwt0b1Jd12oV4Z">/pages/3hUDkpNwt0b1Jd12oV4Z</a></td><td><a href="/files/fAfDuPbgZGYtawERmhYC">/files/fAfDuPbgZGYtawERmhYC</a></td></tr></tbody></table>
