Template notes
This workflow provides a simple approach to counting the items returned by a node.
It uses a Set node with the Execute Once option:
The expression uses $input.all() (documented [here](https://docs.n8n.io/code-examples/methods-variables-reference/)) to fetch all incoming items at once, and .length (documented for example [here](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/GlobalObjects/Array/length)) to count them.
