Bringing items in through AML package as 'Released'
Hello all, I am working on importing custom itemtypes to load via AML package as part of new builds. Due to how a customized contextual window displays these items, I need the items to be in a 'Released' state when they are brought in. (The window will only display 'Released' items). However, I am having difficulties getting the items to be in a 'Released state' 1. I've tried adding a <state>Released</state> to each item being brought in 2. I've tried adding a postAMLpackagedeployment script that adds a <state>Released</state> to each item The catch is, I need the items to abide by its lifecycle/workflow normally when edited and the state returns to 'New'. Is this possible?
REST API, `Value cannot be null.\r\nParameter name: criteria` trying to get a Workflow
Hello everyone. I'm using Aras 12SP09 and I'm working with the REST API. I have an AML call that I would like to transform to a REST call, it is: <Item type='Workflow' action='get' select='related_id(*)'> <source_id>UUID</source_id> <related_id condition='is not null'/> </Item> I turned it into the following REST call: .../server/odata/Workflow?$filter=source_id eq 'UUID' but then I have an error " Value cannot be null.\r\nParameter name: criteria ". What I don't understand is, the same syntax is working perfectly fine when trying to get a Property for example: .../server/odata/Property?$filter=source_id eq 'UUID' . Is there something different for workflows? What am I doing wrong?
Instantiating a workflow activity based on number of tasks
Hi Community, Random question here... I want to setup a workflow that instantiates parallel workflows based on the number of tasks. Basically the user will attach X number of related documents and I want to be able to set a parallel path for each document. I have played with parallel paths when I knew how many were needed, but is it possible to generate them on the fly in the workflow based on number of documents? All of the activities would need to be the same. The other option is to prepare X number and then set any unused to automatically process but let me know if anyone has done anything like this.
