Hello, is there a way to update a value in a data source, but I have many columns, I would like it to be done as shown in “A”, where I can designate a value to the column number, and not have to use more repetitive blocks of “update” for each column?

Hello @rosapaulamolina101ra 👋 Welcome to the community!  
Unfortunately, this is not possible at the moment.  
A workaround is to use conditions with different “update value” blocks on each.  
I suggest you make a #Feature Requests about this.
