Hi, Nick You might need to handle it yourself If you have to process an element only after you get the broadcast state. For example, you could “cache” the element to the state and handle it when the element from the broadcast side elements are arrived. Specially if you are using the `KeyedBroadcastProcessFunction` you could use the `applyToKeyedState` to access the element you cache before.
