Workflow navigation rule

Introduction

Workflow navigation rule controls Workflow navigation. At this point, the workflow navigation rule is embedded in the workflow definition and cannot be shared among different workflow definitions, unlike other rule types.

Rule syntax

Keywords

Examples

Example 1: Imagine you are implementing a “Delete object” workflow that has two activities in the following order:

  1. Form activity: show a confirmation message. The user’s decision is recorded in the variable “agreed”.
  2. Scripted activity: delete the data object if the user agrees.

You will need to configure the inclusion rule for the scripted activity using the option "Included When" with the rule below:

@ctx.Get<bool>("agreed")

Example 2: The submission form will be disabled and become non-editable after the user submits their application.

ctx.Ref("CwAmtApplication")["Status"] == "Submitted"
