Hi,

I am sorry, but I think I don't fully get your question. Could you try
to rephrase it? Maybe an example could help.

Generally speaking the KeyedProcessFunction is scoped to a single key.
Whenever you access a state (MapState, ValueState, ... ) it keeps the
current value of that state for the current key.

Best,

Dawid
