Usage:
Example:
Let’s build and execute the getUsersFullNamesDef example.
- Create a new definition called “getUsersFullNamesDef”
- Select the definition and click the “design” button
- Drag the above controls to the canvas
- Connect the dots between the controls as above
- Click the “getUsersFullNames” step to configure its “Settings” properties. Provide the step name. Provide the user names and user GUID IDs separated by semicolons. Provide the variable/global reference to hold the user's full name after execution.
- The “Logging” setting configuration is necessary for documentation and also measures the workflow progress and the percent complete. This is achieved by configuring the step state and percent fields individually, as shown in the images below. Configure the “Logging” using the following properties.
- Save the process definition, create a new process instance, and execute. Render the process instance. Click on the process step to view the properties. The getUsersFullNames step should get the users' full names, as shown in the graphic below.
