> At the moment, when connecting two process groups, it's only possible to have
> 1-to-1 relationships to connect one output port to one input port.
> Here is my use case: I've one common process group collecting logs from
> multiple sources (A, B, C, D) and two process groups to process the logs. One
> of the process group should only process logs from A, B, C while the other
> should process logs from B, C, D.
> In the common process group, I've one output port per source (A, B, C, D). In
> each "processing" process group, I've one single input port (and I'll
> re-route if necessary based on the source). At the moment, I have to drag 6
> relationships to connect the common process group to the two others. I'd like
> to only draw 2 connections. When dragging the connection, I should be able to
> select multiple output ports from the common PG for one single destination.
> That would make the workflow easier to understand, and this approach much
> more scalable.
