execute flow while a list content is greater than a value

Hello,

I have a list filled with references of empty racks, and I need to execute a flow to add some items on them, but need to leave 3 empty for other operations. These 3 can change over time, it is like a minimum stock I need to have on a queue.

I know about the "Wait for event" function (content change for example, but it is not until arrives at a value, but to do something while the content is greater than a certain value).

I cannot find a "Do while".

Thanks!

I mostly solve things like this with a simple loop structure. Check the condition between each iteration. Once it is not satisfied anymore, go to a waiting activity instead that releases the token when the condition should be reevaluated.
