Creating a temporary internal destination to combine data for the final destination
I have a source in my flow that has 2 separate API calls to retrieve the desired data (and may be 3 or more in the future). I have created branched destinations that work properly and get the data from each API call correctly. But the destination API is going to change and become one API POST that will have all the data from the multiple API calls in only one. I can make this work if there is a way to "capture" the source API calls together to let me then "combine" them into the single call that I use in each of the transforms. The problem is that I know of no way to "park" the values from the incoming source to let me get them and then combine them using a transform. I don't see a "destination" type that would allow me to stage the incoming data from the sources and then transform them into a single output for a single destination. Any help would be great!

This should be really easy to do using "Lookup" steps and "Results mappings", and then you can also use JavaScript as needed to do more advanced type merging and/or data changes. This post on the topic should help.
Here are some pics to illustrate what I am describing too.
